Set up your database with Category and SubCategory. You can then nest two searches so that the first searches for Categories and the one inside searches for the SubCategories. The general idea is something like[search db=Products.db&eqCategorydata=DrugStoreShelves] [founditems][search db=Products.db&eqCategorydatarq=[Category]&eqSubCategorydatarq=CosmeticsShelves] [founditems]You can search on any field in the database. Remember that you'll probably have problems if you name a field with the same name as a DNA-used word. Don't name a field Date, for example.Glenn ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
