ah thank you, i do not need to show all the rows no, my initial thought is just to have scattered information from say row 3 on the page somewhere,... then show another row on another part of the page.. in another part of the design on the page. im not to good with php, but with the information i have posted could you possible help me out and write the code i would need to show just row 2, and if i wish to show row 3 on another part of the page further down the design of the site.. what i would need to write? thank you for reply and the help!
