Ok, I can't see anything wrong with that. Are you absolutely sure it works when you replace the include line with the contents of the include file? Are you sure you're replacing it exactly?

One minor thing... that include file is not the same path and filename you gave in your original post. You are looking at the right piece of code yes?

but he said that he echo'ed something from the include file.

Which file was it called from?


One thing I'd suggest you add is a check after the mssql_query to see how many rows were returned. Beyond that I'm stumped.

I'm thinking this is a scope issue

are either of these two pieces of code being called from within a function or 
class?

the display code, or the include statement? was it

../../Conn/prpr_mssql.php

or

../../Connections/connection.php

Which file did you have the include statement in?
