You can do what you want without difficulty. Are you using javascript or VBscript for your ASP code? There is a great site with tons of tutorials on ASP: www.w3schools.com But there are so many variables in getting the data. What type of database are you connecting to? Were you able to get all your data loaded? There are lots of folks here who can help with ASP.

>>>Are you using javascript or VBscript for your ASP code? i'm using vbscript >>>There is a great site with tons of tutorials on ASP: www.w3schools.com great am very happy to dive in, i'm proficient with ultradev but beyond that my hand tweaking skills are at a basic level but am willing to get down 'n dirty ... just need a bit of a pointer as to what kind of tutorial to look for
is this to do with the command object?? >>>What type of database are you connecting to? Were you able to get all your data loaded? connecting to an access db, not sure what you mean by "Were you able to get all your data loaded?" thanks

In VBScript it's easy to capture a particular data row item. Here is a little bit of code that opens the connection, reads the data, and sets a value:
<%
dim code
code = Session("schoolcode")
Set RSEVENT = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")
RSEVENT.Open "SELECT * FROM CalEvents where schcode='" & code & "'", Conn, 1, 3
%> RSEVENT("eDate") This shows the contents of the DB field "eDate" on the web page. Ultradev is a great way to get started, but take some time and study the code so you know what is going on. Pretty soon you'll be able to hand code (cut and paste) what you need to do. The DW code tends to be very bloaty. I especially dislike the way they handle the delete command. About 75 lines of code when all you need is about 5. Take some time with w3schools.com and have fun with it!

Hi topr8 You need to research the following at W3schools in this order fi possible. vbscript a few hours should do
asp a few hours again
then ADO very important. Hope this helps if you need more help could I suggest pacosdrivers.com they have some free scripts that you can take apart. I found this useful to make all the stuff I leant from w3schools click together. Good Luck
