Ikciu,

I'd just like to clarify I did actually do a search for this, and did not
find any examples of code that explained how to impliment it, just snipets.
If I was a little further down the road in understanding php, these would
have been fine, but as I've only just started out learning, they didn't help
me.

I also spent many hours trying AND re-trying to write my own code, which can
be very frustrating. Hence why I asked. I didn't ask anyone to "please can
you alter my code so that it will produce an error message if a duplicate
exhists" I ask "could someone please explain how to write an error message
into my AddNew.php below" As in could some explain what I need to be
looking for, to resolve my problem. I would have been more than happy if
someone had said, "look into doing this before your INSERT query".

I'm not looking for a free lunch, just some sugestions on what to have!

Best wishes,
Linda
