Mike, Just make two query variables eg: $query = "INSERT INTO person VALUES('$firstname','$lastname','$middlename','$birthday',NULL,'$email','$ph oto')"; $query2 = "INSERT INTO company VALUES('$name','$city','$state','$zip','$address','$phone','$url')"; That's worked for me in the past... Here is an example: where I'd update more than one...(it actually looks through and may insert into sql2 or 4 loads of times.. BTW I made this all up, so it may well be incorrect syntax, but hell - it works!!! ___start____ if($rid) {//if 2 $sql = "UPDATE food SET name='$name',address1='$address1',address2='$address2',price='$price',rcom1= '$rcom1',blurb='$blurb',location='$location',hours='$hours' WHERE rid=$rid"; for ($i=0;$i<count($cid);$i++) { $sql2 = "INSERT INTO FoodLookup (rid,cid) VALUES ('$rid','$cid[$i]')"; $result2 = mysql_query($sql2); }//end of for for ($a=0;$a<count($eid);$a++) { $sql4 = "INSERT INTO BarLookup (bid,eid) VALUES ('$rid','$eid[$a]')"; $result4 = mysql_query($sql4); }//end of for }//end of if 2 ____end____ Stuart ----- Original Message ----- From: Mike Hammonds <mhammonds@knowledgeinenergy.com> To: <php-db@lists.php.net> Sent: Saturday, September 09, 2000 3:19 AM Subject: [PHP-DB] Is this a valid insert ** Reply Requested When Convenient ** I am trying to update two tables at the same time that are in the same database is this the right way to do this? $query = "INSERT INTO person VALUES('$firstname','$lastname','$middlename','$birthday',NULL,'$email','$ph oto')"; "INSERT INTO company VALUES('$name','$city','$state','$zip','$address','$phone','$url')"; $result = MYSQL_QUERY($query); Mike Hammonds, CNE5, MCP-NT Fellon-McCord & Associates, Inc.
