Hi, did you mean something like this? $level_names = array(Guest, Regular User, Intl. User, Contractor, Employee, Sales, Investor, Human Resources, Administrator); $user_level = $level_names[$req_user_level]; Regards, Olavi Ivask On Jan 25, 2010, at 9:13 PM, Karl

Yes, $req_user_level is an int between 0 and 9. Yes, the other code worked great. Thank you for your response though. That is definitely a good way to cross check. Thanks again for your responses. Best, Karl On Jan 25, 2010, at 2:24 PM, Peter Beckman wrote: On Mon, 25 Jan 2010, Karl
