I did try to use your query as it was but it return me the error : Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A0409) Unterminated string constant Actually, I did try also to spit it as below, but alltho isn't returning errors the page is perfecty....blank!! Here is the code: <%@ LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %> <% Dim outpostDB Dim outpostDBPath stroutpostDBPath = Server.MapPath("../GestAlt/alternative.mdb") %> <% set outpostDB = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") outpostDB.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & stroutpostDBPath & ";" %> <% set fondo = outpostDB.Execute("SELECT id_fondo,nome_fondo from fondi") Do While Not fondo.EOF id_fondo = fondo("id_fondo") nome = fondo("nome_fondo") %> <% set val1 = outpostDB.Execute("SELECT TOP 1 valore_quota from valori where id = "&id_fondo&" order by data_quota desc") Do While Not val1.EOF valore1 = val1("valore_quota") %> <% set data = outpostDB.Execute("SELECT TOP 1 data_quota from valori where id = "&id_fondo&" order by data_quota desc") Do While Not data.EOF data_quota = data("data_quota") %> <% set val2 = outpostDB.Execute("SELECT TOP 1 valore_quota from valori where id = "&id_fondo&" and data_quota < "&data_quota&"") Do While Not val2.EOF valore2 = val2("valore_quota") %> <table> <tr> <td><%= nome %><br></td><td><%= valore1 %><br></td><td><%= valore2 % ><br></td> </tr> </table> <% val2.MoveNext Loop %> <% data.MoveNext Loop %> <% val1.MoveNext Loop %> <% fondo.MoveNext Loop %> <% val2.Close set val2 = Nothing %> <% data.Close set data = Nothing %> <% val1.Close set val1 = Nothing %> <% fondo.Close set fondo = Nothing %> <% outpostDB.Close set outpostDB = Nothing %> Thank you for your patience and guts coz I guess this might be the worst asp code u've ever seen....
