I am looking to replace a deleted member's reply name from 'n/a' to 'Former Member' in the search.asp listing
The Code which displays the author is: lines 545-548
if IsNull(Topic_LastPostAuthor) then strLastAuthor = ""
else
strLastAuthor = "<br />by: <span class=""spnMessageText"">" & profileLink(Topic_LastPostAuthorName,Topic_LastPostAuthor) & "</span>"
I have utilised this if statement within topic.asp
if Reply_MemberName = "n/a" then
Response.Write " <p><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """ color=""" & strSiteBGColor & """><b><span class=""spnMessageText"">Former Member</span></b></font><br />" & vbNewLine
else
Response.Write " <p><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """><b><span class=""spnMessageText"">" & profileLink(ChkString(Reply_MemberName,"display"),Reply_Author) & "</span></b></font><br />" & vbNewLine
end if
I can not get the if statement slotted into the search.asp to do the same text replacement
Any help would be greatly appreciated. andy

I could be wrong but have you tried
if Reply_MemberName = "" then<
if Reply_MemberName = "" then<

Run an SQL query to update all member's usernames to "Former Member" WHERE M_NAME='n/a'.
Edit pop_delete.asp and change all occurrences of n/a to Former Member.
Done.

Shaggy, thanks so far, I think I tried an SQL query a while ago with the topic.asp occurances of n/a which needed to be changed but this kept the links back to the member profile detail.
The code below starting "if Reply_MemberName = "n/a" then... was used in topic and it did remove the link and change n/a to Former Member.
The string that displays the author name in search.asp and search_mod.asp is strLastAuthor = "<br />by: <span class=""spnMessageText"">" & profileLink(Topic_LastPostAuthorName,Topic_LastPostAuthor) & "</span>"
What I was asking if you could amalgamate the string into an 'if statement' so that all occurances of 'n/a' get the link removed and Former Member displayed.. I did have a go but there appears to be another if routine in the first block of code if IsNull shown above on first thread.
The search.asp and search_mod.asp files linked to text files. The code for the author display: search - line 548 and search_mod - line 793
thanking you

Sorry, brain seems to be a bit fried today for some reason. If I understand what you're trying to do correctly, you'll need to edit the profileLink function (it should be in either inc_func_common.asp or inc_func_member.asp) and have it output just "Former Member" if the first argument equals "n/a".

Apols too: could you steer us in the right direction as this coding is sometimetime brain surgery. I am having a go at search_mod but keep getting synax errors..
if IsNull(Topic_LastPostAuthor) then
strLastAuthor = ""
else
if Topic_LastPostAuthor = "n/a" then
Response.Write " by: Former Member" & vbNewLine
else
" strLastAuthor = "& "by:" & <span class=""spnMessageText"">" & profileLink(Topic_LastPostAuthorName,Topic_LastPostAuthor) & "</span>"
