@Chris, 
Tried that... no joy.

@João, nope, I broke them down to different
statements , put them into an array and ran them in a
for() loop and it works perfectly... problem is,
sometimes I have to run upto 15 updates at a time,
would be great if I can run that in one statement.

Ok, read it, again.... what am I missing?
I took out the semicolon from the end... then I get an
error.
I did find one user post saying that this runs just
one query at a time...but if thats the case how is
PHPMyAdmin running multiple statements that are
seperated by a semicolon?

Thanks!
Ryan
