I thought i read somewhere that you could refer to the field by number. Was i wrong? It doesn't seem to make a difference anyway. It still doesn't work. Here's the code with words instead of numbers. I'd be grateful if you could let me know if there are any obvious errors. Best wishes.

Hi, from this command line test: select imglocation,height,width from img where imgname='alfstag1' it looks to me like your imgname field is *characters* rather than *numbers*. when ever I'm doing something like this (eg WHERE firstName=justin), I do it with a LIKE statement, rather than with
