I have a form that is made up of radio buttons. I don't know why I did that since I don't know how to use them. The user clicks the respective radio button and clicks submit. The radio buttons are all value (1). The "groups" of the radio buttons are all different to specify the row in the DB table to which they will need to post their values. Users will be making multiple submissions throughout the day and I also need the "total" column in the table to update each time the user submits that particular selection. Any help will be most appreciated.

It's pretty simple. Just a form with radio buttons.

This is the asp script i've started:

<!--#Include file=&quot;Includes/OpenDBConnections.asp&quot; -->
<%

objrec.open &quot;TypeData&quot;,objcon,3,3

objrec.addnew

objrec(&quot;date&quot;)=date
objrec(&quot;UserID&quot;)=request.cookies(&quot;ECT&quot;)(&quot;UserID&quot;)
objrec(&quot;Type&quot;)=request.form(&quot;Type&quot;)= &quot;error&quot;
objrec(&quot;type&quot;)=request.form(&quot;Type&quot;)=&quot;complaint&quot;

objrec.update

%>
<!--#Include File=&quot;Includes/CloseDBConnections.asp&quot;-->

I have absolutely no idea what this script should look like. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
