passing result from query to a message box

[mhnaccess]

I have a query created in the queries area that returns a aggregate value (a count() function).
It works if I click on it and provide a value in the prompt.
In a seperate form I want to display the result of this query.

I have tried
C1=Qry_Test!exp r1000
C1=[Qry_test]![expr1000}


neither works,

Thanks

In an unbound textbox use =dsum("[expr1000]","Qry_test ") for the textbox rowsource. If its bound to the query just use a textbox and bind the column.

I need to use the returned value in a test , would this work?
c1=dsum("[expr1000]","Qry_test ")
if c1> 10 then

do something
endif

Thanks

I encounter data type mismatch on c1 = DSum("[expr1000]", "Qry_test")
with c1 declared as integer

OK,
I have the correct method,

DSUM led me to Dcount which is

c1=c1 = DCount("*", "Table name", "[field name]=' something' ")

Declare C1 as a Double or Long and try again.

What value is the query returning?

Hi,
I am trying to develop a php page where user can write mysql query (select, insert, update) and run.

I have developed one for select query. here is the code:
<?
/*************** ************
* Author: P. Sengupta
* Used for Admin Utility only
*************** ************/
?>
<br>
<h2>Run SELECT Query</h2>
<?
$query=$_POST["query"];
?>

<form action="#" method="post">
<textarea name="query" cols="80" rows="10">
<?=$query?>
</textarea>
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" /> <input type="reset" value="Reset" />
</form>

<?php

if (empty($query)) {
echo "<br>Enter query...";
exit;
}
else {
$q = str_replace (" ", "", $query);
if (string_begins_ with(strtoupper ($q), 'SELECT')) {}
else {
echo "<font color=red>Sorry ! Only SELECT statement is allowed. The query expression you entered does not seem like a SELECT statement...</font>";
exit;
}
}
//echo "here....";
include 'config.php';
//$query=" select * from store_items ";
getDBLink();
$result = mysql_query($qu ery);
if (mysql_errno()) {
echo "<font color=red>MySQL error ".mysql_errno() .": ".mysql_error() ."</font>";
exit;
}
if (!$result) {
echo "No result found... Check the query...</font>";
exit;
}
$num = mysql_num_rows ($result);
if ($num==0) {
echo "<font color=red>Zero records found</font>";
exit;
}
else {
echo "<font color=blue>$num records found.</font><br>";
}

$fields = mysql_num_field s($result);
echo "<table cellspacing=1 cellpadding=2 bgcolor=#000000 ><tr bgcolor=#cccccc >";
for($count=0;$c ount<$fields;$c ount++) {
$field = mysql_fetch_fie ld($result,$cou nt);
echo "<td>$field->name <br>($field->type)</td>";
}
echo "</tr>";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_arr ay($result, MYSQL_NUM))
{
echo "<tr bgcolor=#ffffff >";
for($count=0;$c ount<$fields;$c ount++) {
echo "<td>$row[$count] &nbsp;</td>";
}
echo "</tr>";
}
mysql_close();
echo "</table>";

function string_begins_w ith($string, $search)
{
return (strncmp($strin g, $search, strlen($search) ) == 0);
}

?>

Now I want to modify this page for working all three (select, insert and update) quires together. can anybody please help me??
