texte = Your Code: [lookup db=Briggs.db&value=[sku]&lookInfield=[Quantity]&returnfield=[Quantity]&NA]I think this is Correct: [lookup db=Briggs.db&value=[sku]&lookInfield=sku&returnfield=Quantity¬found=NA]Because the value=[sku] means you are searching on the sku right? If so, the LookInField should be the sku field. The name/value pair for the value attribute just indicates what sku number you are looking up, you then have to tell WebCat what field to look in with the LookInField name/value pair attribute. The return field is the information it returns. Also you forgot the 'notfound=' in front of your NA plus you do not need the quote marks.Here is the code from the online Command Reference: [LOOKUP db=databasePath&value=searchValue&lookInField=searchField&returnField=fieldN ame¬Found=TextIfNotFound]> From: Eric palhof
