ASP(xlWorksheet.Cells) W/many Text Chars Has #VALUE! Error In XL S
I have an ASP page that loops through a SQL Server 2000 table, then
downloads an Excel sheet the users can save, etc. Works fine, except, I see
that in one particular "comments" field the Excel sheet returns a #VALUE!
error in the cell when there is a large amount of text. I've looked through
the MSKB, MSDN and many ng posts to see if there is a workaround or solution
to this, inclduing looking at the xlWorksheet properties (I've tried
'xlWorksheet.Cells(iRow, 11).WrapText = True), played with Orientation, etc.
But to no avail.
My database (.mdb) has a 255 lenght text field, I need to insert the content of a request.form of not a text field, but a TEXTAREA:
---code--- <textarea name="comentario" rows="10" cols="50" wrap="PHYSICAL"> --end-code- how can I limit the textarea to a max number of characters, like 255? I think I should use any ASP code and a "there is an error" page, but I dont wonder how to made the sintaxis.
I need to sum the values in different cells of an excel sheet which im getting from data base and which is in a loop and the number of entries depends on the user.
I know we have this thread somewhere, but I can't seem to find it now
I want to show the first 100 chars of a string, but I don't want a word to be cut in half at the end, it must show the whole word then and go a bit beyond 100 chars.
This will be used for a comments system, comments will be displayed on the front page, and I want the field (Comment) to only display the first 300 or so chars
I am having a probem with asp, xml, com while using chinese chars. The chinese letters come out of com fine and they are also fine when i use asp to write to a text file.

My ASP Page has the following headers
I've seen lots of posts on this and other boards, but nothing seems to work for me. I need to import data from an Excel spreadsheet using ASP. None of the ranges in the spreadsheet are named. I'm using this code:Code:
<% Set ExcelConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set ExcelRS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") ExcelConn.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" ExcelConn.Properties("Extended Properties").Value = "Excel 8.0" ExcelConn.Open "c:inetpubwwwrootaspcalendar est.xls"
set ExcelRS = ExcelConn.Execute ("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]")
Response.Write(ExcelRS($A$1))
%> I've tried every variation on "ExcelRS($A$1)" that I can think of - I've seen "ExcelRS(1,1)" used, but that doesn't work... What is the syntax for accessing Excel data by cell coordinates?
I get data out of a database and the user can save this data on his disk in Excel format. Some cells has a large lenght of numbers (eg. 20060512000000). If I open the excel file, the cell where that number is in shows the following : 2.00605E+13.
I have to go into Format Cell and convert this to 'Number' and no decimal places. Is there a way in ASP to define the cells ?
Part of the content of one of our web pages uses wingdings and Chr(239) through Chr(242) (which are little arrow outlines, though that's not really important.)
It worked just fine in Windows 2000 Server, but now under Server 2003 it seems that characters above 127 get converted somehow, and our code no longer produces the desired effect.
Does anyone know how to make it send our content without modification, or how to encode it in a way that it makes it out to the browser with the intended character value (as opposed to some thoroughly useless conversion to a 7 bit value)?
I have an ASP function in place to strip invalid chars out of a data store before I create an XML file of this data, but my function doesn't work on a certain set of chars.
As far as I can see these are the following:
a) trademark char b) long hyphen/dash char c) smart/curly quotes (both left and right)
Even though my function is set up as follows: Code:
I have a form where the user enters a customer name, then clicks the submit button which then adds it to a database. This works absolutely fine untill the name has an apostrophe in it.
eg when the name entered is O'Hanlon and its submitted, I get this error.....
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E14) Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''O'Hanlon'
if i have an standard excel file and i have data in there in specific cells. Is it possible to have some upload facility that will be able to paste it to specific asp form textboxes?
e.g if the data in the excel file was in cell c4, i would want to paste it into textbox4. Is that possible.
OR
Is it possible to upload an excel file and to put specifc data from different cells directly into an access database.
e.g excel file -c4 i would want to paste it to rs("test4")
I have created a table that I want to fill with calculated values. I have given ID's to each cell. This must NOT be the way since I can't address these ID's. How do I store values in table cells from my PostBack?
I have an application that let's the user enter text into a textbox and this data is collected on the server and stored in a database.
The page is multilingual and sets Response.Charset to the appropiate for the language, for example gb2312 for chinese etc. This made all texts on the page show up alright.
However, I did not change the codepage of the page so ASP encoded the post data sent to the server and I have got really ugly texts for certain languages.
I have had applications before doing the same thing where the page has been able to decode the posted characters again when redisplaying them, but in this case I haven't been able to get anything meaningful from them.
It seems to me that the encoded text depends on the charset used when entering the text, entering chinese characters when using iso-8859-1 gives me character codes like Ó’ which probably would be alright to convert but chinese text that has been entered in the gb2312 charset look like this Code:
I've decided after several failed attempts this is too difficult to do on my own. I know it's been done before and a tutorial or code must by lying around somewhere.
I have a Weekly Calendar
It's in a table with 7 columns and 22 rows
Across the top I have Monday thru Sunday
Down the side I have half-hour time increments - 8:00am - 10:00pm
I would like to display my events on the table, corresponding to their day and time. If it spans several hours I would like the event to span several rows.
Basically look like an Outlook Calendar.
I've tried this myself with five dozen if/then statments and embedded loops but it's a huge mess.
I'd like to find out how to simply do this in asp (not ready for .net yet), any ideas?
I need to come up with an if statement that will basically take a large list of records and place each one into its own table cell, and when the cells reach a max of 5 in a row, start a new row and repeat. How can I go about this?
I am developing an application which uses data represented using color codes, in an MS-Excel worksheet. The application has to assign values based on the backgroundcolor of a cell. Like, Black = 0, Red=1, Green=2.
How to determine the background of the cell in ASP?
my problem is that i load an xml file (which displayed well in iexplorer standalone) with an asp file, and the page displays o instead of ő, u instead of ű, so my central european characters are changed. the xml well formed, and well encoded. i hope ;)
I have loads of text in russian chars that I need to put to a MySQL db (version is 3.23).
a) Is there some way to make MySQL db to accept russian chars? b) If not, there must be ready-to-use functions to convert the russian chars to HTML-entities?
The site is done with ASP & VbScript, but of course JScript/Perl script based function suits well too. I've tried searching with Google too but thin results
The problem is that a person uses kind of a CMS where he/she can type different language versions of certain phrases. In practise there is a textarea type of field for all languages where he/she types the russian text which is then saved to a MySQL database.
I have an interesting problem and am looking for some advice. I am hoping to build an asp whereby records are pulled from SQL Server. These records will be merely file locations for thumbnail images I hope to display in a grid.
Rather than having a grid be constructed row-to-row, I was wondering if it is at all possible to dynamically construct this grid as a table of thumbnails whereby each cell (perhaps 5-6 columns across) represents one record? I have no idea how one would construct this loop that spans columns AND rows rather than just rows.
One of my programmers is using Office Web Components in classic ASP to create, fill and format an Excel spreadsheet. Everything is fine except when he creates Merged cells the performance drops dramatically. He has investigated the 'Center Across Cells' alternative but cannot get it working using Office Web Comonents.
Has anyone come across this problem or even better has a solution?
I have a string (holding a book title) that contains an apostrophe. This is generating an error when I try to pass it through sql into a table of orders. I retrieve it from the form with
title=request.form("title") I'm trying to pass it through with: '"&rs("title")&"'
This isn't working. I tried taking out the ' ' but that didn't help, nor did elmiminating the " " help eather. Can someone suggest what might be the problem?
I'm getting an error when I'm retreaving from a "text field" in the database and it has no data in it. I'm using MYSQL version 3.23.58-nt. I have the same script running a different system and I don't get this error. It justs output nothing and continues with the loop.
This has to be an ASP problem when retrieving data from the database. I've change the Field for Message to "varchar(252)" vice "text" in the database and stoped giving me error. But I still need to use the type "text" in the database since my "Message" will be longer then 252 caracter. Code:
I have to make a site search function for my website. User types a keyword, and the search function searches through all the static pages for the keyword. The result of the search has to display the URL relating to the keyword, which the user can click to read the contents.
I had no idea how to go about doing it, finally I thought of using a textfile containing the word, and its related URL in the format: Code:
