I have been musing over this code fragment:

<%
set id = rs.fields("id")
set lastid = rs.fields("lastid")
do while not rs.eof
lastid=id
rs.Update
rs.Movenext
loop
%>

Should this set the value of the field lastid to be that of id? Certainly the =id part gets the value of the field. If lastid= does set the value of the field...how would I assign the variable lastid the value 2?

I don't mean any disrespect, but ...

What?!
