Hi Everyone,

I think this an easy one.

What i have is a subscription page which loops though their subscribed categories. What i want to do is have a variable called show1250 = "tick"
(where the 1250 is the objRS("CatID") value )
I cant join the show and the objRS("CatName") together.

eg.

Do While Not objRS.EOF

Response.Write objRS("CatName")
' This bit i cant get right joining the show and the objRS("CatName")
"show" + objRS("CatName") = "ticked"

objRS.MoveNext
Loop

This way when i grab all the subscription categories later on down the page i can just do a check in my loop where or not to tick the check box or leave it unticked.

Thanks for you help

Tim

what is there in objRS("CatName") actually?

You can try that replacing "+" with "&"

"show" & objRS("CatName") = "ticked"
Response.write "show" & objRS("CatName")

If you get the output as ticked, then you are through.

Still get a syntax error.

Basically i want create a variable name that joins the string "show" and the CatName (Category Name) together as a variable name. so later on down the page when i loop through all the categories i can determine wheather or not to have the check box ticked or not with some simple logic.

Thanks

It's really strange because i can do it if i use a session variable but i doesn't work for just a normal variable.

eg.

Session("show"& objSub("CatName") ) = objSub("CatName")

Works and creates session variables such as

showTennis
showGolf
ect....

But i just want to create normal variables.

Any help would be appreciated
