texte = I want to add a record to a database (based on a session id) if it does not already exist, otherwise I just want to update it. It seems I am going the long way about this. Can't I get REPLACE to do it in one line of WebDNA code? Here is my sad solution:[TEXT]found=[LOOKUP db=sessions.db&value=[sessionid]&lookinfield=sessionid&returnfield=sessionid ¬found=][/TEXT] [SHOWIF [found]!] [REPLACE db=sessions.db&eqsessionidDATAreq=[sessionid]]info=[info][/REPLACE] [/SHOWIF] [HIDEIF [found]!] [APPEND db=sessions.db]sessionid=[sessionid]&info=[info][/APPEND] [/HIDEIF]Thanks------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
