I want to update an access db with multiple records. They are property pictures. They may have the same listnumber, but all have a different ID#. There are not always a set amount of pics... may be 5 or 7 or 10, etc..

The DB fields are id, filedata (actual .jpg filename), picturename, listnumber

I am trying to add names to all pictures at once instead of one at a time. Below is the code I have... it is only updating one record at a time.

Data entry page: (output query: lookup grabs the pictures witha a specific listnumber ie:1950)

<cfoutput query="lookup">
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="title_picture_action.cfm?id=#listnumber#" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="#id#">
<input type="hidden" name="listnumber" value="#listnumber#">

	<table border="0" width="500" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0">
	<tr>
        <td><img src="images/uploads/#filedata#" width="100"></td>
		<td><input type="text" maxlength="50" size="20" name="picturename" value="#picturename#"></td>
		<!--- <td align="center"><input type="submit" value="Submit"></td> --->
		
		<hr color="00704a" style="height = 1px">
    </tr>
	</cfoutput>
	<tr><td><input type="submit" value="Submit"></form></td></tr>
	<table>

Processing page:

<cfquery name="titlepicture" datasource="#dsn#">
	UPDATE uploads SET	
	picturename = '#form.picturename#'
	WHERE id = #form.id#
	</cfquery> 
			
	<cflocation url="index.cfm

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated! Thx in advance.

To make clear: My problem is on the Processing page. I need to be able to update MULTIPLE images (filedatd field in db) with names (picturename field in db) They will have the SAME listnumber, but different ID numbers.

I believe if you update the db using the listnumber instead of the id, then you should be updating all records with that listnumber.

ie:

cfquery name="titlepicture" datasource="#dsn#"
UPDATE uploads SET
picturename = '#form.picturename#'
WHERE listnumber = #form.listnumber#
cfquery
      
cflocation url="index.cfm
<cfoutput>
	<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="title_picture_action.cfm?id=#listnumber#" method="POST">
		<table border="0" width="500" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0">	
			<tr>        
				<td><img src="images/uploads/#filedata#" width="100"></td>		
				<td>
					<input type="text" maxlength="50" size="20" name="picturename" value="#picturename#">
					<input type="submit" value="Submit">
				</td>
			</tr>	
		</table>
	</form>
</cfoutput>
