The issue is preventing adding of duplicate records. I want to prevent adding the same hKey, say: test_Command | c | stack "Test" | 1 to the database. Using INSERT with the primary key set to the autoincrement id field, you would get records like this: *id | name | type | location | hnum* 1 | test_Command | c | stack "Test" | 1 2 | test_Command | c | stack "Test" | 1 3 | another_Command | c | stack "Test" | 1 4 | another_Command | c | stack "Test" | 1 Only by making the primary key = "name,type,location,hnum" instead of "id" woudl you get a fast normalisation of the data inserted. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
