I have a list of email addresses with three different category types. They are family, business, and girlfriends.

Ideally, I would like to filter the recordset with a multi-select listbox so I could choose to display one or two categories of email addresses at the same time. Of course, when you select more than one item in the multi-select listbox the variables passed in the URL string are comma delimited. The "WHERE" clause in the recordset's SQL doesn't know what to do with this, and returns an error.

Filtering with a sigle select list box has proved to be quite easy, but the multi-select has stumpted me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you solved this issue? Try using the IN directive like so: SELECT * FROM members
WHERE Category_ID IN ( Categories)

Hello Wayne,

Have you ever tried this in Dreamweaver?

The first issue with this is that the IN-directive needs the values to be seperated by quotes en comma's.

The second issue is that Dreamweaver does something with quotes also - but unfortunately not on the places that you would like to have them.



<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>
