Excellent! Yes, it now does give me a clue to see what's actually in the object. print_r($rec[0]) shows: stdClass Object ( [year] => 2005 [month] => 8 [day] => 31 [hour] => 0 [minute] => 0 [second] => 0 [fraction] => 0 ) I've never dealt with object in PHP. Something new learnt today. I'm now able to use get_object_vars($rec[0]) to extract the info from the object. There is one thing I don't understand though. Is there anything wrong with the follow code snippet? The result of echo is 'using list, year is" rather than 'using list, year is 2005'. == list($year,$month,$day,$hour,$minute,$second,$fraction) = get_object_vars($rec[0]); echo "using list, year is $year<br>"; == This one works. But I prefer using list. == $arr = get_object_vars($rec[0]); echo "year is $arr[year]<br>"; == Thanks, Bing -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
