Sorry to bother this list again, but I don't get the point... :-( I need the rowid for later updates by a user form. So how can I issue a select clause with 'WHERE rid=3D:rid'? Don't I need this for the *update* clause??? This is what I thought of: 1.) select foo, bar, rid from masterdata 2.) let user select data set to update with 'update.php?rowid=ROWID' 3.) write changes to database: update foo, bar values (FOO, BAR) where rowid=ROWID' And what's about that colon? Is there any special meaning in PHP? I'd highly appreciate your help/answer! Many thanks in advance -- Sven Voigt, Mainz, Germany http://www.ps90.de Tower: "Mission 123, do you have problems?"
