whats wrong with my mail send option? its not working

Dim mailmessage As mailmessage()
       MailMessage.To = ""
       MailMessage.From = TextBox4.Text
       MailMessage.Subject = "New Member*"
       MailMessage.Body = "Username: " & Chr(13) & TextBox1.Text & Chr(13) & "Password: " & Chr(13) & TextBox2.Text & Chr(13) & "Thay are 13 or older" & Chr(13)

O and VB 'splash' text onto a screen? or does it have to be in a window

You need to create a new instance of the MailMessage class, and you didnt fill in the .To field which specifies to whom the mail is sent.

Dim message As New MailMessage()
message.To = "personsemail"

o i know about the .to i just removed my e-mail when i pasted the text i'll change the code.

---------- now it says that mailmessage is not declared

Dim message As New MailMessage()
       Message.To = "someone@cox.net"
       Message.From = TextBox4.Text
       Message.Subject = "New Member*"
       Message.Body = "Username: " & Chr(13) & TextBox1.Text & Chr(13) & "Password: " & Chr(13) & TextBox2.Text & Chr(13) & "Thay are 13 or older" & Chr(13)

it has underlined only then MailMesage() in blue saying its not declarded

Did you reference the System.Web assembly?

You have to do that, and use the imports statement becuase you dont use the full path of the class. This is the Imports statement you need after referencing the System.Web:

Imports System.Web.Mail

Put that on the top of your code.

o thats y it wont work. ok i'll do that, wait what form do i load it on? first one or the i use the call for it on?

Put it at the top of the code area

Option Strict On
Option Explicit On
Imports System.Web.Mail

Public Class Form1
  '...

U must put it in the form u are calling where U create the mail message ;)

Because it need to know what "message" is.
