Hi Marty,I was out this morning, so I just saw your message.You forgot to pass the search parameters from your shownext links to the search context. The search context won't know what [Spvar] and [plansvar] mean when you leave them out of your shownext links. Try this instead:[search db=bigtest.db&max=[AT]&wsplansdatarq=[plansvar]&neLast_namedata=[blank]&woSpecia ltydatarq=[Spvar]&asLast_namesort=1&startAt=[SA]][shownext position=begin&max=1] Previous G roup [/showNext][ShowNext position=end&max=1] Next Match ing Group [/showNext] [/search]I've never used those position=begin and max=1 parameters in my shownext stuff. They are kinda new to me and I still tend to write my code without them, but if they work the way they are advertised, then I think these examples should work for you. If not, let me know ...Sincerely, Ken Grome WebDNA Solutions http://www.smithmicro.com/webdnasolutions/. Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
