I would say something like the following would work better:

if($FUNC=="USERPOST" || $FUNC=="MODU")
{
        $sql .= "UPDATE newdacs";
        $sql .= "SET emailfwd='$emailfwd',";
        $sql .= "mformat='$mformat',"
        $sql .= "filter_code='$filter_code'";
        if($FUNC=='USERPOST')
                $sql .= ", unote='$unote'";
        $sql .= "WHERE user_id='$user_id'";

        $result = mysql_query($sql) or die('mysql error #'.mysql_errno.':
'mysql_error());
}

Try that ... also look into www.php.net under string manipulation for other
options.
