How to pass a parameter into the Database Result Wizard ???

[Guenter]

Hi,

I have an .asp file which gets called with a parameter representing a
product id:

DisplayProductDetails.asp?productid=<some number>

Then in DisplayProductDetails.asp I am retrieving the parameter by:

<% pid = Request.QueryString ("productid") %>

Now I want to use the value of the 'pid' parameter in the SQL statement I
create with the Database Result Wizard:

Going to "Database Result Properties"->"SQL Server"->"Custom Query"->"Edit"
and adding the query:

SELECT PRODNAME
FROM PRODUCT_RECORD
WHERE (PRODID = :id:

The code generated by Frontpage is:

....
<%
fp_sQry="SELECT PRODNAME FROM RODUCT_RECORD WHERE (PRODID = :id:"
fp_sDefault="pid="
....
%>
....

When I open the DisplayProductDetails.asp in IE it shows the follwoing error:

"Database Results Wizard Error
The operation failed. If this continues, please contact your server
administrator."

Anybody any ideas ?

Thanks !!!

One more piece of info.

When I replace

fp_sQry="SELECT PRODNAME FROM RODUCT_RECORD WHERE (PRODID = :id:"

with

fp_sQry="SELECT PRODNAME FROM RODUCT_RECORD WHERE PRODID = "&pid

it works. Only problem: Frontpage overwrites this change when saving the
file ?!?!

Try saving the page after you make the change while in code/html view.

Thanks for answering !

I tried to save it in code/html view (tried that already before) and I get
the pop-up "The contents of a FrontPage component have been modified. The
contents will be overwritten when you save this page."

When using the DBRW you must be editing the DBRW grey code
