general outline of situation; my office is moving away from microsoft
(resistance is NOT futile!!! go slashdot!), and establishing web-based
customer service systems.

i'm currently establishing a customer table, that links to a contact table.
each customer will be listed once; to be the customer name and mailing
address, with an auto_increment number serving as the customer number (key
field, cnum).

the contact table will contain specific contact names for each customer,
with specific details such as email address, phone number, extension, title,
etc.

i currently have these tables joined on the customer number (cnum), with a
separate contact number (auto increment, key field, conum) for the contact
table.

what i'm TRYING to figure out is this:

i do a search within the two tables to find contacts for a customer, who has
been selected from a drop-down box.  this is matched on the cnum field in
both tables.

currently, if NO contacts exist for a client, the screen remains blank.  i
want to generate an option to input contact information in this case.  the
logic for this is roughly:

if the search for cnum within contacts yields no result (empty set) then
        show "do you wish to input?" screen
else
        list contact info
end if

i can't seem to get my head wrapped around the syntactual requirements for
using mysql_store_result() within vbscript.

following is a sample of what i have so far, if it helps.  can someone point
me in the right direction?

' Retrieve The Records into Recordset
cnumfind = "select cnum from cust_info where cname = ('" & custname & "');"
Set RS = Con.Execute(cnumfind)
cnv=rs("cnum")

cinfodisp= "select cont_info.cnum, clname, cfname, cname, caddr1, caddr2,
ccity, cst, czip, ccountry, cphone, cext, cfax, cemail from cont_info inner
join cust_info on cust_info.cnum=cont_info.cnum where cust_info.cnum = '" &
cnv & "' and cont_info.cnum=cust_info.cnum;"
set rs2 = con.execute(cinfodisp)%>
