What I'd like to do is specify a parameter to limit the query's results. The query field that I'm using, AreaID should = the specific Website (there are about 12). I tried creating the database results, then changing to HTML view and adding "WHERE AreaID=3" to the "s-sql=" and "fp_sQry=" parts, but I get an error: Too few parameters. Expected 1. Number: -2147217904 I'd prefer not to use a Custom Query. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Its not something I have attempted to do via the DRW and believe its not possible (I may try it soon though!) Typically youll do it via custom asp.

When I modify the "fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM qryPets" line to "fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM qryPets WHERE AreaID=3" then save... it goes back to the plain Select line. (I didn't notice that before...) Now I gotta get out my ASP Databases book and start reading! Thanks anyway. (in reply to webcats)

(I didn't notice that before...) The code is re-writing itself because of the extra code that Frontpage puts in (the gray code). Find the same SQL in the gray code and make your change there instead of in the red. It should work. You also may want to learn how to get rid of the gray code. It makes life a lot easier.

I was actually modifying both the Gray and the Red code before, then tried just the Red. I guess I should have taken it all the way and just modified the Gray only. Oh well, as long as it works. Thanks! (in reply to webcats)

Its not something I have attempted to do via the DRW and believe its not possible That's funny, I think I do that all the time.....call the Access query instead of the table itself. If we're talking about the same thing, it definitely is possible... _____________________________ Don't take you're eye off your final destination. ASP Checkbox Function Tutorial.
