I used:

$sql = “SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type = ‘post’ OR post_type = ‘page’ AND post_status IN ( ‘draft’, ‘publish’, ‘future’, ‘pending’, ‘private’ ) ORDER BY post_date DESC $limit”;

Pleased to report his works on WordPress 2.9.1 and all my pages appeared in Marsedit. I edited on and the changes appeared on my WordPress site.

thank you soo much, I’d been trying to find an answer to this for the past 2 hours.

How would I do this with WP 2.9.1 which now reads:

$sql = “SELECT * FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type = ‘post’ AND post_status IN ( ‘draft’, ‘publish’, ‘future’, ‘pending’, ‘private’ ) ORDER BY post_date DESC $limit”;

Can I add the ‘OR post_type = ‘page”?

many thanks
