texte = Hi Webcats:Well, after having struggled with this one for several hours, it's time to give the list a shot :-)Here's the challenge. I have a database that contains music reviews. Each record contains a single review, plus 4 fields for quotes from that review (quote1, quote2, quote3, quote4). I want to be able to randomly display a single quote from any of the quotes found within the database. I want this to display on the first page of the website. (see the site at http://www.marylydiaryan.com)Here is the code that I have tried, but which is not working.[search db=newsite/mlrreviews.txt&group1field=quote1+quote2+quote3+quote4&negroup1da ta=0&group1sort=1&group1sdir=ra&max=1] [foundItems][group1][/founditems][/search]I have been guessing as to what I should place within [founditems] as this information is not listed in any of the documentation nor mentioned in any of the searchable archives. I have tried both [group1] and [group1field].I am successfully accomplishing a similar search to pull in a random quote based on a single quote field:[search db=newsite/mlrreviews.txt&nequote1data=0"e1sort=1"e1sdir=ra&max=1] [foundItems] [quote1] [/foundItems] [/search]Any help will be greatly appreciated.Timothy W.
