Closer! (I'll send a cup of coffee anyway if I can just get it to work). The result still says "no matching records" but when I enter the same value '54321' in the form HTML page and pick Submit, it returns a valid result.

Here is the actual form HTML code pasted in below. In case it helps. (And yes, I did read through the thread you pointed me to. Sorry if I seem anxious or obnoxious - not my intent ) Just that the discussion seemed to go into a different area than where I'm trying to go.

Code:
<HTML>

<HEAD><TITLE>Employee User Name List</TITLE></HEAD>



<BODY BGCOLOR="#B2BCE9"><FONT FACE="ARIAL,HELVETICA">

<H3>Employee Standard User Name List</H3>

<b>

<FONT FACE="Comic Sans MS" SIZE=2 COLOR=black>

<P>   

<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="http://intranet.mycompany.com/empinfo.asp">

Employee #: <INPUT NAME="empno" SIZE="12"> <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT>

</FORM>

</FONT>

</BODY>



</HTML>
