This is my answer to another seeker's question. It should also answer yours. This code assumes that the variable customerid on the form contains a value that matches up with customerid in the query custcompanysearch _______________________________________ <dtml-let tcustid="customerid"> <select name="customerid"> <dtml-in custcompanysearch> <option value=<dtml-var customerid> <dtml-if "customerid==tcustid">selected</dtml-if>> <dtml-var firstname> <dtml-var lastname></option> </dtml-in> </select> <dtml-let> __________________________________________________________________ Jim Sanford .

I haven't a clue how to do this. I've got the ODBC Connection and SQL Method working, but how do I iterate through the query results to fill a drop-down?
