Hi Richard! Thanks. Ok.. let me see if I got this straight.... Db_query... While($results) { $resultset[] = $results; } //display initial data needed echo "{$resultset[0]} {"{$resultset[3]}"; //display full results further down page reset($resultset); while($resultset) { //display full result set here } Is my logic right or completely off base? Thanks!
