checkbox in list/edit when data = "+" or "-" not true/

Getting parameters from the URL is easy.
URL: somepage.asp?param=somevalue
Use Request("param") or Request.QueryString("param") to access the value of param.
Checkbox field expects values of 0 and 1. You can covert - and + to 0 and 1 and vice versa using events.

To convert data before saving to the database use BeforeEdit event: http://xlinesoft.com/asprunnerpro/docs/before_record_updated.htm

To convert data before displaying on the edit page use ProcessValues event: http://xlinesoft.com/asprunnerpro/docs/process_record_values.htm

...but get a build error. The problem is the syntax here: "evt_mrc="&Username

I cant see anything the the samples that could help me - how should this be done?

I get an "Unable to create database script" when I try to do so

You need to find a way to send your files and database to the support team. I guess you can create database script manually or send us database backup.

solved the first question- needed the single quotes. Now for the checkboxes!
code:
Username2= Request("UserID")

if username2<>"" then session("UserID")=Username2

strWhereClause = whereAdd(strWhereClause, "evt_mrc='"&session("UserID")&"'")
