ASP > Access Database Date Problems
Basically I'm trying to save and retrieve a UK date (dd/mm/yyy) to an Access database using asp. The database resides on a server located in the US
Things I've tried so far:
-- Specifiying Session.LCID both in Global.asa and individual ASP pages
-- Using Custom formatting to format date before entering into database (using SPLIT function)
-- Using custom formatting to format date AFTER retreiveing from database
The problem is that the date seems to change how it's stored in the database. If I entered "16/02/1982", it would be saved in teh database as '02/16/1982".. but if I entered "03/04/2005" it would save it as this.. So fomatting after retreiveing the date from the DB just messes everything up!
Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this other than moving to a UK server?

I am pulling legislation information and expiry dates from an access database and posting to the web. The expiry dates in access are formatted as Month Day, Year (EG.. January 1, 2006) But when they are pulled from the database to the web, they come out as 01/01/06. I know that the format we have in access is simply a mask, however we require that format be carried through.
This is likely a simple solution, however I am new to ASP and can't seem to locate any information on this. I have searched the forum for related info on this but can't find anything that relates to my specific situation.
Here's the code we are using so far...
Code:
<%
Do While NOT Recordset.Eof 'i.e. carry on looping through while there are records
Response.write "<tr><td>"'open row and first cell
Response.write Recordset("Legislation")
Response.write "</td>"'close first cell
Response.write "<td>"'open second cell
Response.write Recordset("Repealed")
Response.write " "
Response.write Recordset("Expiry_Date")
Response.write "</td></tr>" 'close row
Recordset.MoveNext 'move on to the next record
Loop
%>
I have also found and implemented the following code:
Code:
dt=recordset("Expiry_date")
dt=Month(dt)&"/"&day(dt)&"/"&year(dt)
response.write(dt)
This lets me change the positions of the numbers, but I can't figure out how to make it display the full month name and full year.

I have an ASP form that has a field that automatically places the current date into it. It uses the function Date().
The problem I am having is when the form is submitted into my Access database the date is coming out wrong in the Access field. The datatype for the field is Date/Time but it still is not coming out right.
Example: the date in the ASP form shows as 12/19/2006 and the entry in the Access form shows 12:00:27 AM. If I change the format of the Date/Time field to Short Date, the result is: 12/30/1899.
Does anyone know how I can get the data that is posted to the Access database to come out the same as the ASP form?

I am trying to compare a date in my database to the current date. MySQL statement is:
sqltemp5="select * from users where dateclosed <= '" & date & "'"
What I am trying to accomplish is exclude records where the dateclosed field is older than todays date. Such as if dateclosed = 6/30/2004 then today being 08/25/2004 that record should be excluded.

In a connection string, I have the following:
sql3 = "SELECT DISTINCT State FROM Property Where TypeID = '" & srch_cat & "'"
In the database, is a field called expiredDate I am trying to show only records whose expiredDates are greater than todays date, but I am messing up somewhere. The values in the fields are as this: 3/7/03 (or something like that...no time is added to it)

I have built an online booking system for a hotel and all is working fine except for the fact that the ‘From’ and ‘To’ dates are saved in the MS Access database in US format. The user selects from a date picker pop, which places the in the textfield as English format e.g. 02/12/2007.
However when I try and save this value into the date column in my DB I obviously receive an error because the formats are different. Please could someone advise me on the best way to convert an English date to a US in order to insert this into the DB using ASP & MS Access.
At the moment I am using plain text as the column type, but this is not ideal as I want to start to run queries against the 2 dates.

I have an ASP page needs to access a remote MS Access2000 database, I got error "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file 'F:Collect.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data. ".
The 'F:' is a mapped drive from remote machine where the access database loactes. If I copy the database back to local box, no problem.

I'm looking to make an online multiplayer game which will utilize Access Database... basically I require thousands of people writing and reading from the same database... I was wondering if this is possible for that... or is mdb file restricted to 1 person at a time...
If it is limited what would you suggest as the best way to control an interactive online environment? .txt files possibly?

When I try to select records based on a date I get nothing back from the db. For example when I run the query:
SELECT * FROM trainingCalendar2 WHERE startDate > #04/03/2005# AND courseType = '1' AND numOfPlaces > 0 AND inuse = 1;
using the SQL editor in access and then view it in design view, the date is changed to 03/04/2005.

I have an access database which has a date field. I've entered all of the dates in valid UK format (dd/mm/yyyy). An example of the table looks like this:
Id| SeminarName | SeminarDate
1 | Introduction | 18/02/2006
2 | Other stuff | 19/02/2006
When I do:
SELECT * FROM tblSeminar WHERE SeminarDate=#18/02/2006#;
It doesn't return any records. If I remove the WHERE SeminarDate... it works fine, so something is causing the date not to match.
I'm using <%Session.lcid = 2057%> at the top of all of my pages.

Before everyone says go to this page read this page, I am new to the asp side of development and so still in the learning stage.
The Problem.
I have a website using asp and a ms access database. I have a couple of forms that get entered into the database and then update. but with this the date is added automatically into the database.
So when someone does a search it comes up what date it was posted. The trouble is it comes out in american format, where as i want it in british format. I have done what it says in some of the suggestions on the site but I either get:
nothing,
and error
or a date saying 30/12/1899.

i am trying to do a search on a database within a date range but the query pulls in details from before the time submitted.
For example :
records : 01/05/2006 Test
06/06/2006 Test 2
06/06/2006 Test 2
If i do a search between 06/06/2006 and 06/06/2006 i will get the 01/05/2006 record as well as the 06/06/2006 records, my code is as follows. Code:

I have a db that has a field 'enddate' and I want to UPDATE all the records there 'enddate' has passed... i.e. the record has expired.
The trouble I get is that no matter what the date, it marks all the records as expired, even though some have not... It's nothing to do with the 'impressions' or 'maximps' fields as I have taken those out and the problem still happens. I have a good testing database set up, and it should be showing some results...
This is my code:.....

I am storing dates in a database. WHen i come to do sql queries on the dates access is interpreting them as US format (mm/dd/yyyy). When the date is stored in the db it is in the correct uk format (dd/mm/yyyy) but when asp passes the queries to access the date format changes if the day is above 13.
For example if the date being searched is 10/2/2006 (10th feb 2006) it is searching the database for 2nd October 2006. If the i pass is 13/02/2006 (13th feb 2006) it searches it correctly.
I have tried setting the session.lcid to 2057 but this makes no difference. I read somewhere that access automatically treates dates as US format and only tries another format if the us format doesnt make sense. Is there any way around this?

I have more than one date field on my ASP forms (and in the sister MS Access table) I can not write (created the record in Access table) to the table UNLESS there is date data in ALL the date fields on the ASP form.
I need to be able to have the user enter only one date, then do back at a later time and enter the other date.I am using the short date format in Access table (MM/DD/YYYY) When there is only one date field (on ASP form and in Access table) the date is written and the record is created.

I have a date field which I use var1 = new Date() to save under MS-Access field with "text" to be the data type (date/time is NOT accepting). I have tried using
var2 = new Date(oRS("field1"))
var2.getMonth() does not get the right saved month
how to retrieve the date and time using Javascript? Or I should use var2 = new String(oRS("field1")) The result of var2 would be "Thu Mar 31 11:11:11 EST 2005". Is checking the location of spaces the only way to get date and time?

I have a created a cost reporting system which shows a level-breakdown
report. There are three levels in the report the lowest level holds the cost
items that are entered by the user these records also have an Entry Date.
The level above that is a Sum of the lowest level and the top level is the
Sum of the second level. I created the solution using three queries in
Access. I then use the queries in ASP to generate the report. But now I need
to use the Entry Date at the lowest level to re-generate the report with
values from the StartDate to the EntryDate (which is entered by the user).
Question is, can I do this using the construction I use, or do I have to
pull my queries to the ASP code and include the dynamic EntryDate? How do I
solve this?

I just recently created a html form and one of the fields required a date. I want to make it so it will insert the date when the form is being filled out. For example, if I fill out the form today I want today's date on it.
I am going to connect this form to a MS access database, the database also has a field "date". How would I like all these together? Also, I want to send a notice to a specific email whenever someone submits the form.

On my machine in the office I change the computer setting to English (UK) so the date format is dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy for US.this problem happens in either Access or SQL Server. In the database I have a table with Date/time column. The database is
located on a machine that is set to dd/mm/yyyy also.
When I enter date 7/1/08 (as in January 7, 2008), it stores it in the database as 1/7/08 instead of 7/1/08. Why is it like that and how can I make the database stores it as 7/1/08 ?
