It is a wildcard, like someone else said. That exact query has a poor syntax, though.. .unless there's a method behind the madness. Since it's matching a wildcard only.. which would match everything, you could use "select description from $prodtable group by description" and get the same results. ---John Holmes... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
