[PHP-DB] Answer to my own question From: Jonathan Swerdloff (swerdloff <email protected>)
Date: 12/06/00

I've got the answer to my own question.

The previous function opened a connection to the MSSQL DB.

Because I'm new to this, I noticed that I forgot to do select a table. I
just assumed that that was covered in the
 <email protected>($sys_dbname,$qstring); call, which apparently it wasn't.

Thanks to everyone that helped.
