Thank you Daniel, You remided me that I once had a page with the following instead mysql_error() and that gave me the verbosity that I needed to get things working. Looks like my wife changed some fields in the database without thinking how they might affect the script. Can't believe I didn't compare the database to the script in the first place. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
