' . mysql_error()); //N/A - I think mysql_fetch_assoc brings the result in with keys; mysql_fetch_array would let you reference by indices. while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) //N/A - Toss names in an array; otherwise, you're overwriting each username every time you fetch. $user_loginname[] = $row['user_loginname']; //N/A - Maybe not necessary to close DB in between queries. mysql_close_db; mysql_select_db($db_name2); //N/A - Again, no ' needed. Also, your query should recursively check each username from above. foreach($user_loginname As $msguser) { $query = "SELECT user_id FROM e107_user WHERE user_loginname = '$msguser'"; $result = mysql_query($query, $conn) or die('Query 2 failed. ' . mysql_error()); //N/A - We'll use mysql_fetch_assoc() instead, and an if statement. if($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) { $user_id = ($row['user_id']); //N/A - Put code to message user here } } ?> Now, the script's task is to select loginnames from one database1, compare them to database2, select the user_id associated with the loginnames in database2 and send a private message to each of those loginnames. Just now, the script selects only the last loginname from database1 and then sends a private message to that 1 person. I need it to select all the loginnames which currently there are 25. So what do I need to change for this to work? Thanks in advance. Paul Arena Servers - Web Hosting http://www.arenasmithster.co.uk -----End Original Message----- Comments are in original message.
