You have to make use of the mysql_result() function, the code would look
something like this:
$result = mysql_query("SELECT company, fname, lname FROM table_name WHERE id
= '$id'");
$company = mysql_result($result,"0","company");
$fname = mysql_result($result,"0","fname");
$lname = mysql_result($result,"0","lname");
