I'm making my first foray into ASP creating a webpage for my hobby business
(www.webhedz.com.au). I'm able to get results from my Access database (using
MySQL) but I'm unable to get the 'Item_Price' column to format as currency,
or apply formatting to any of the columns for that matter. Is this a minor
task or do I need to learn more on the database/SQL side?

Thanks for the quick response Kathleen... I had actually already been through
your site after a Google on my question before posting here but, as an
ASP/SQL n00b I have no idea where to put the FORMAT statement. Perhaps I
should have phrased my question differently or tried an SQL Forum.

You would make this change to your SQL statement. Open the page, switch to
Code View, and find the statement that starts with s-sql="SELECT and copy
and paste here.
