 I'm trying to build a simple query in UD with the PHakt extension.It is as follows:
select * from tblTest where field.x is not null
How do I get mySQL to disregard the null entries in that field?! I still get everything pulled from the database. The SQL statement works fine with ASP. What am I doing wrong???
Thanks,
Bobby

  OK,
I finally figured out to exclude fields with no data. However, when I try to preview the page in the browser, I get a big fat error:
Parse error: parse error in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\women\tmp7zrs6o4323.php on line 10
Here's the code:
("SELECT * FROM Contacts WHERE FirstName Not Like "" ORDER BY FirstName;"
I imagine it has something to do with the double quotation marks, but I can't figure it out. It works fine when you test the SQL statement.
Help!!!

  Change the double quotes in your SQL to single quotes.
