<font face='Arial'>Hi all,

Not sure how to go about this. My client has a price list, which I am inserting into one big table in Access. They require the ability to move the positions of the content in the price list. Ideally (in the Admin section of the site) I would like to have each inputs' position in the recordset changeable.

Any ideas? TIA,

//Dave

If I understand correctly, this might help:

I have created news article tools that several of my sites use. In order to allow them to control the order of how these are displayed, I simply added an 'Order' field which consists of a 'sort number' that the user adds in the admin screen, and then I order my recordset on the page by that field.

Here is a screenshot of that in action - should give you an idea what I am talking about:
