Okay, I'll start from the beginning. I have set up a news section in ultradev which was no problem at all; part of this news section contains a link button, which links to whatever is referred to in the news item. The form to insert the news item contains a form field that you can enter the link into.

This is all fine and easy, however, if the news item isn't related to a site, or update, then it isn't necessary to have a link, so I have tried using the show/hide region but that doesn't work - i have basically tried everything to stop the link button appearingon the news page when the link field in the database for that record is empty, but to no avail!

Can anyone help??? please??

Try something like this in the table cell:

<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code>
&lt;td&gt;
&lt;% If(YourRecordsetName.Fields.Item("YourLink".Value)&lt;&gt;"" Then %&gt;
&lt;a href="&lt;% = (YourRecordsetName.Fields.Item("YourLink".Value)%&gt;"&gt;&lt;img src="YourImageDirectory/YourLinkImage.gif" width="50" height="20"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;% Else %&gt;
& nbsp (take out the space between & and nbsp - only way to get it to appear in forum)
&lt;% End If %&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;</font id=code></pre id=code>

Regards

Owen.
