right. agreed. what i was misguided on was your answer #1 which dealt with
auto-incrementing to avoid duplication of data. there simply isn't an id at
the point of insert and re-submits will duplicate. and the id that she was
talking about was a product id which is typically alpha-numeric so it can't
auto-increment.
anyway, yes, the canned script suggestion is a great route to go and i think
linda seems sharp enough to teach herself if she had an example(s) to go by.
cheers.
