I need to pass values from an .asp generated from the webapp server (a report with one record) to
anther site when the user clicks on a button.

Any ideas?

<form action="http://othersite/url.asp" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="parameter" value="<%=
oWebobject.Call("get_Value") %>">
<input type="submit" value="Post to othersite">
</form>

I tried using <% = oMyDatafile.DDValue("mydatafile.recnum") %>
and I keep getting a value of 0 (zero).

Then you probably don't have a record loaded. Try calling a debug function
that always returns "1" instead, and check that the posting works.

I ended up writing my own functions to do just that.
