Maybe it contains whitespaces... Have you tried: if (trim($record->Subject2) == "posters") { echo ("PrintFormat1"); } else { echo ("PrintFormat2"); } -- Lasse "Patterson Liddle" <mail@pattersonliddle.com> wrote in message news:00ac01c10967$52da3c40$ec0687d9@patlid... I wonder if someone would be kind enough to explain why, if $record->Subject2 sometimes contains the word posters this echo $record->Subject2; accurately prints the word or words in the field Subject2 from the found record but this if ($record->Subject2 == "posters") { echo ("PrintFormat1"); } else { echo ("PrintFormat2"); } always returns PrintFormat2 (I'm trying to get the if statement to print format 1 when the field contains posters, and format 2 if it's got anything else in it. It's never empty.) Apologies if you've seen this all before --- Regards John Patterson Patterson Liddle Bath phone & fax +44 1225 426722 mail@pattersonliddle.com www.pattersonliddle.com
