I have never used a database in rb, and don't use them much in general, but it looks to me like
'titleField.text' shouldn't be in quotes?

OK, here's my delima. I've got an application that I use to maintain an
inventory of my dvds. cds etc... I've got the db thing working great and I've got a listbox that will display all the info in the db. My problem is, I want to be able to search for a dvd by entering the title in an editfield. I want the search to be accomplished with a pushbutton. I've got the databasequery bound to the listbox, but I can't get the sqlselect from where to work. It's either not working, or my listbox isn't displaying the info. heres the query

Select * from dvd where title ='titleField.text'

the action event for the pushbutton is

databasequery1.runQuery

The binding for the databasequery to the list box is

bind listbox1 with list data from databaseQuery1 results

is there something that I'm missing?

Is it possible to to use the editfield this way, or do I have to convert the text from the editfield to something else before the databasequery can use it
in a search?

Thanks
Dan
