Ok, pulling an all-nighter here…

I’ve started learning php, I now asp, so that helps.

I want to know how return a single record. I’ve seen tutorials about putting the results in an array, but i only want one one record.

I know this is a realllllyyyyy noob question 🙂 but kirupa forum is awsome like that.

thanks
