Thanks - I've changed the Query to: $query = "SELECT `LotNo`, `A`, `Description` FROM batemans WHERE `SaleNo` LIKE $SaleNo AND `LotNo` LIKE '%$q%' ORDER BY LotNo ASC";
but it still only shows one value in the drop-down. The output of the query can be seen at (this shows multiple values, ie the query is working): http://www.batemans-auctions.co.uk/js/autocomplete.php?SaleNo=102&q=2 Is it the formatting of the output?
