I have a user database with a table called users and I have a field called is\_admin. The values I put in that field are 0=basic or 1=admin. I would like to be able for an admin to click a button next to a basic user’s name and have them promoted to an admin by changing the 0 in their is\_admin field to a 1. How can I do this?

Thanks!

Brandon
