ok its working now i re did the orders.php edits and hey presto its showing so db was being populated but just not showing.
sorry to have bothered you with what was a mistake of my own.
thanks
I didn't understand from your initial posting that it was the "updated_by" field that was missing (I thought that the whole orders-update page was whitescreened). Thanks for posting back the issue and your solution!
