You know, I think that I need a little electro shock thereapy for each time I do this. I made this same mistake a couple of weeks ago. Man, these 15 h our days are getting to me (I know, I am a slacker).

What I'd suggest is naming the fields count#ID# or something that will make then unique and identifiable on the action page. This will separate out their values individually for processing. Another option would be to use your listGetAt() for your count variable as well, because it is a list too. So you have two options I guess. HTH, Tyler M.

This is fed from a form that allows the user to update inventory quantities for any number of items. Rather than go in and update one item at a time, I want them to have the ability to do all the items at once. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Bryan Stevenson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2002 10:01:15 -0800 # 5 needs more input....... ;-) What is the relationship between "count" and "ID" and where does "count" ge t set?
