Hi, I have a table with about 50 columns in it. I'd like to query the information for one record, and hold the data in variables that have the same name as the column headings, along these lines: $query = "Select * from postings where id = $userid"; $result = mysql_query($query); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $id = $row["id"]; $location = $row["location"]; $employer = $row["employer"]; ... } I'd like to do this for all columns in the table, and feel like there's a way to do this automatically, but haven't been able to find the function or syntax to use. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Zeth
