Drill Down Application

You have a page that lists manager's names.

In their names, put the following link:

<a href="EMPLOYEEINFO.asp?cid=<% RECORDSET INFO FOR PRIMARY KEY%>">Manager's
Name</a>

Simply drag the primary key's value to your link and put the code in behind
an assigned value, which in this case I designated as cid. So, at the end
of your url, tell the browser there's a variable (?), define it's name (cid)
and show what it's value is (=<% RecordsetInfo %>.

Then, in your next page setup your Employee Info recordset to catch the url
variable with the name CID and sort records according to it.

Coincidentally, you can combine these into the same page, using a drop down
list for the names and a show/hide to show the drop down if no employee is
selected (ie, recordset with url variable is empty) or employee info if
recordset is full (ie, employee has been chosen).
