Hi, I want to email an image with an embedded flash to enable respondents to fill in their personal details by clicking on that section of the email and filling in. I would then like to receive those details.

Please let me know what software I need, where to get it and how to do it.

Thanks

There is no Flash Player for email programs.  You will need to create a web page that holds the content and email a link to that page.

Adding to Ned's post. It's a good thing there's no way to do this.

Using Flash for things that can and should be done with HTML is a terrible practice. More than half of all web traffic these days is mobile phones and tablets, and they can't see or use a Flash form. So you're effectively blocking out 50% of your potential respondents if you use a Flash form.

You would ideally want a PHP form that can be fed back to an SQL database.
