Like I said, I'm new to PHP. Here is another way I communicate with
the database, let me know if this is a better way (it requires a
stored procedure):
//Assign the server connection to a variable
$connect = mssql_connect(SERVER,1433', USER, 'PASSWORD');
//Select your database and reference the connection
mssql_select_db('DATABASE', $connect);
// Create a new stored prodecure
$stmt = mssql_init('StoredProcedureName');
// Bind the field names
mssql_bind($stmt, '@category',$cat,SQLINT4,false,false,4);
mssql_bind($stmt, '@userid',$userid,SQLINT4,false,false,4);
mssql_bind($stmt, '@passwordtitle',$pname,SQLVARCHAR,false,false,100);
mssql_bind($stmt, '@password',$encrypted_data,SQLVARCHAR,false,false,
1000);
mssql_bind($stmt, '@alt',$alt,SQLVARCHAR,false,false,150);
mssql_bind($stmt, '@desc',$desc,SQLVARCHAR,false,false,100);
// Execute
mssql_execute($stmt);

Sorry - I don't know what you mean by DB class?
I'm using Microsoft SQL 2000....with this code:

Because you are using COM, you can't use PHP's empty(), isset(), or
is_null() in your if(...) statement. I've not used COM for much in
PHP, but I think you'll have to do something like this:
switch (variant_get_type($rs->Fields(22)) {
case VT_EMPTY:
case VT_NULL:
$q4 = '';
break;
case VT_UI1:
