texte = I have a multiple database search problem I can't figure out.A product is described by up to 6 different codes, and I want to display all the codes from the product database, sorted by a code description that is looked up from a second database.If a product is described by codes S1 to S6: [search db=products.db&group1field=S1+S2+S3+S4+S5+S6>group1data=&group1summ=T&asg roup1sort=1]But I can't lookup the founditems based on group1; what I'd like to do is something like: [founditems] [lookup db=subjcode.db&value=[group1]&lookinfield=subjcode&returnfield=description] [/founditems]to give me a summarized list of code descriptions sorted by their description.Is there anyway to do this without writing the [founditems] to a temporary database, resorting, and looking them up from there?Thanks in advance,Kevin Lippert------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
