Nice catch but unfortunately my misspelling is consistent in the column
name. I wish their were examples across the internet so I can understand
this function. I have only found one reference to
'HTML_QuickForm::LoadQuery'. I guess I could try
'HTML_QuickForm::loadDbResult' but I am not using the DB abstraction
currently in my program.

Is there a place where the author answers questions about their PEAR
classes. Again I am new to PHP and I am a Java programmer learning PHP.

Thanks in Advance...
