Hey everyone.
Thanks for the help on my other problems.

I just cant seem to figure this one out.

What I am trying to do is...
This form gets passed a pasc_id value, I have a query where it takes that value, searched the DB, and displays the results in text box's so the user can change them, then hit "Update" and it will udpate those values in the DB.

For some reason i cant get this to work

I was trying to make it query the DB, then put the values of the query into selected text boxes, then if they hit "update" it would update the db, based on the pasc_id(they cant change that)

The form displays the first query where i get the pasc_id and its values.
Here is the error i get:
