Request.QuerySt ring problem

I have the following line in my ASP code.
If UCase(Trim(CStr (oRset("Suburb" ))))=UCase(Trim (CStr(Request.Q ueryString("lin k"))))
then

etc etc

end if
The problem is that although the Suburb and the link variables match
often, it only works when the variable has been pulled from an Access
database where I entered the data directly into Access through the
Access interface. Where I have entered the data through the web
interface, it ignores it as if it does not match. I have added CStr,
Trim and Ucase to try to get it to see it as the same text but it
still fails. Can anyone help. ASP 6.0 and Access 2003. Thanks

Response.Write "Hmm, somethings gone wrong, or it doesn't match"

Hi Steven

Thanks for the code, but it just confirms the problem. Even though in
some cases the contents of "ThisField" looks identical to the contents
of "ThisQS", it still ignores it and considers it to be different.
Everything new I add to the Acesss Database where the conditions
match, it is ignored. I even tried it with SQL query and same thing.
Very weird.

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM BIBS WHERE Suburb ='" &
Request.QuerySt ring("link") & "' ORDER BY ID DESC"

Could it be somthing in the Access Database?

It is a text box - 50chrs - it is also set up as a replica, could that be an issue?

Show us the result of
response.write oRset("Suburb") & "<BR>"
response.write Request.QuerySt ring("link")
