what does this mean?

[Anon]

can some body tell me what does the following do?

$code=$row->name;

Thanks

[Anon]

as far as I know, $row->name will return the array element named "name" from the array row, and assign it to $code.

Have a look at associtiave arrays in the help/on-line docs.

That's syntax related to Object Oriented (OO). There's too much to cover in a forum posting. To learn more about it read the Classes and Objects section of the manual and some articles like this one:
