Unless you're planning to use several databases, you only have to use mysql_select_db($DBName); once, normally where you connect to the database. In that way it can be cut down to: $result = mysql_query("SELECT Date,BuyerID,OrderNumber FROM Buyers"); regards, //andreas http://phpwizard.dk (in Danish) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
