Would you be kind enough to tell us what text mysql_error() shows?

You probably just need to use an alias in your query:

SELECT MAX(fee_recd) AS max_fee_recd FROM members

and then you'll have $row['max_fee_recd'] when you fetch the value from
your result set. Other wise you need to use $row['MAX(fee_recd)']...
