Sorry I not making it clear,
If the dynamic filed on the asp page from recordset 1 was, for example, London I neeed the code below to match 'London' to a list of entries in Recordset 2 and return a row background colour based on the match. Recordset 2 is another table with a list of towns only.
<tr <% Record = Recordset1.Fields.Item("COLL_CITY_TOWN").Value Record2 = Recordset2.Fields.Item("TOWN").Value If Record = Record2 Then strbgcolor="#FFCC66" Else strbgcolor="silver" End If %> bgcolor="<%=strbgcolor%>">
