Hi,

I have a problem selecting a value from a recordset. The code i have currently populates the select box but i would like to select a value depending on my other recordset.

Its actually an update procedure im doing, but i want to return a recordset in an editable format with select boxes.

<%
    Set oRs=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
    strSQL = "SELECT DISTINCT manager FROM tblManager ORDER BY manager"
    oRs.Open strSQL

    Do while not oRs.EOF
        if Request.Form("selmanager") = oRs("manager") then 'if this is the selected one then display as selected
            Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE = '" & oRS ("manager") & "' SELECTED>"
            Response.Write oRs("manager") & "</Option>"
            oRs.MoveNext
        else
            Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE = '" & oRs ("manager") & "'>"
            Response.Write oRs("manager") & "</Option>"
            oRs.MoveNext
        end if
    loop
    %>

this code fills my select box fine, but im strugling when i want to select a default value.

... because you take that ( oRs.MoveNext ) behind the condition ?
