Don't take that the wrong way. You've already posted 3-4 messages on here complaining that PHP/Linux doesn't have a dbrec.update function. I am helping out and I do know the answer: create an UPDATE query. If you have 125 fields, then, yeah, it'll be a long query. Nothing says you have to type out the entire thing yourself, though. Loop through your $dbrec array and create the UPDATE query... ---John W. Holmes...
