Mark,



Here's one way to do it.



Inside the for loop, declare a new variable that will hold the session 

variable name.



For i =3D 0 to 9

Dim strCurrentSessionVariableID

Dim strCurrentSessionVariableQTY



Then set the value of the variable using the counter



strCurrentSessionVariableID =3D "cart(0," + Cstr(i) + ")"

strCurrentSessionVariableQTY =3D "cart(1," + Cstr(i) + ")"



Now you should be able to set your ID and QTY variables.

ID =3D Session(strCurrentSessionVariableID )

Qty =3D Session(strCurrentSessionVariableQTY)



Now the rest of the code should work



Good Luck!



Rich
