dfrench - okay, i have gone through both of your project files and i think both do the job i want. i do also agree that the timer exception version is cleaner and makes more sense. But there is one problem - The information submitted in the 2nd form is NOT being passed on to the notification form, if it was filled out BEFORE the timer runs out. I also had this problem when I tried using a subprocess and I didn't know how to fix this. Can you give me any insights on how to pass the submitted information from the 2nd form on the the 3rd notification form?

Thanks in advance!
