trouble querying variable in ASP w/VBScript

Hello,

I've been trying to get a variable inside of a statement to output correctly but it is not working.

This is the string:

GP_strm2.SaveToFile Trim(Server.mappath(GP_curPath))& "\" & tid & UploadRequest.Item(GP_curKey).Item("FileName"),2

I've confirmed that the vairable "tid" is coming into the page correctly using this:

<input type="text" name="trid" value="<%response.write request("tid")%>" size="20">

Please help! I need the correct syntax for the first statement above to have the variable come in correctly.
The variable is passed through a URL.

Thanks for any help.

Ok ... after a few days of *pain* I managed to figure this beasite out ... no worries.

I just simply forgot to put the request.querystring value above it ... so embarrassing.

tid = request.querystring("gotid")

Now, life is good once again ...
