Unknown column in 'where clause' error
Here is the full error I am getting when running the query included: Failed Query: SELECT * FROM customers WHERE Customer_No = CMET3558539239 1054 : Unknown column 'CMET3558539239' in 'where clause' Here's the problem, I know that Customer_No exists. I can see it in the database. This code works fine when using a Customer_No such as 15 or 153, something numeric. The field itself is defined as a CHAR (50). Any ideas what is causing this? It happens with every Customer_No in this format and gives the same error.

RE: Unknown column in 'where clause' error
Thanks for the suggestions, but this is actually a variable that is passed via a URL. For example: http://localhost/cus-lookup.php?id=CMET3558539239 Then in the code it looks like this: $customer_select=SELECT * FROM customers WHERE Customer_No = $id; How can I 'put quotes around' a variable?

RE: Unknown column in 'where clause' error
You are using PHP. Well PHP is not ASP :-) clever and you can enclose your variable in single quotes as in: $customer_select=SELECT * FROM customers WHERE Customer_No = '$id'; Hope this helps. * * Visit http://www.computerstaff.net - Computer Jobs at all LEVELS * * -Original Message- From: Shrout, Ryan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 18 June 2001 20:14 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Unknown column in 'where clause' error Thanks for the suggestions, but this is actually a variable that is passed via a URL.
