First question...is there a site similar to this one for ASP Q and A?

Now...here's my ASP question....

Here's my challenge. All fields are not defined here...

Table "Customers"

row=1 field=SalesPerson value=2
row=1 field=CustomerEngineer value=6

Table "People"

row=1 field=id value=2
row=1 field=name value=name1
row=2 field=id value=6
row=2 field=name value=name2

My question is...since table "Customers" has a need to call two "name" fields from table "People"...how do I query the tables and have asp post the data to the page as follows:

html page

salesperon: name1
customer engineer: name2

Do you see the complication here??? It has boggled my mind...at first I run an inner join query...it works, but guess what...it gives me "name1" for both the salesperson and customer engineer.

Here's the problem when I run the join query...

the asp page calls.... request.write(rsResults.Fields("name")) ....

see the problem??

Should this be a simple task?? Will includes or global.asa ever come into play...help, please?!

Thanks,
Dave

We need to see the table field layouts (at least the ones involved in relationships) and the relationships between them so we can get the correct SQL join statement. After that, it would be just for your ASP page

do until rs.eof = true
response.write rs.fields("fieldname").value
rs.movenext
loop
