How do you update MySQL in the following way? I have designed a form which has all the fields in the database available to edit based on a user query. The query is a field called $ItemCode. If the user wants to change that $ItemCode field how do I update it? In other words how do I use PHP to update the database row called $ItemCode with a new $ItemCode where $ItemCode is $ItemCode? Here is what I've tried and failed at! $oldItemCode = $ItemCode; $query = "update products set ItemCode='$newItemCode', ItemName ='$ItemName', catid = '$catid', price = '$price', description = '$description' shortdesc = '$shortdesc' where ItemCode='$oldItemCode'"; Steve Jackson Web Developer Viola Systems Ltd. http://www.violasystems.com stephen.jackson@violasystems.com Mobile +358 50 343 5159
