I have an Access table with some fields set as text and I would like to convert them to integer.
For some reason some values have wrongly been entered with chars, thus
ALTER TABLE my_table ALTER COLUMN my_field Integer
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e07'
Data type mismatch in criteria expression.
If I manually convert the field using Access, I get warned of possible data loss, but the conversion takes place anyway.
How can I force the conversion using just SQL? Is there something like an option "override errors" / "force conversion"?
Is there a way to start the Primary Auto_Number at a specific number? Usually it starts at 1, but I would like to have it start at 5,000

the default 90 second script timeout for ALL pages (if so, is it for that

definitive answer.
I would like to store a table of alternate URL's it would work like this - in my forums, a user may add a URL (for example www.hyperlink.com). When another user would click on this URL, I would like to call the alternate URL table to see if an entry exists for the domain "hyperlink.com" If so, I would like to alter the hyperlink (on click) to "www.hyperlink.com/123/test.asp" If the URL is not listed in the alternate URL table then I would like it to go to it's original target address.

does this command allow for overwriting (or skipping) the column if it already exists? The reason I'm asking is because the file that I'm reading in will contain the column and the value associated with the column.
However, some files may or may not contain certain columns, thus if it doesn't exist I have to create a new one, or I need to add to it.
does anyone know of a free utility that allows you to alter/create tables through the web for access 2000. I'm talking about the table/db structure, not creating records.

Ok let me explain what I am trying to do as easily as I can. I have a table in my access database that I am connecting to. I select a specific id number using my SQL statement. Now what I am trying to do is scroll through that records row and get the column name of that column along with the value of that cell. I hope that isn't to confusing. Now I'm not sure whether this would be done using ASP or done in my SQL statement. Code:
View Replies View RelatedHow do you get the description of fields in an Access database? I really need this and can't find it anywhere....
It would also help if someone showed me how to get the datatype and other info (like if it's a Yes/no or True/False field).

View Replies View RelatedI need to set up an HTML table or the like, with 4 columns.
Each column needs to have a header with a FRIDAY (dd/mm/yy) date.
i.e. this weeks Fridays date is 16th Feb, the following is 23rd Feb
etc.
So, I need column 1 to be headed 16th Feb, col 2 to show 23rd Feb etc.
As this week passes, the dates need to move up 1 week, so that next
week, col 1 will display 23rd Feb and so on.
These headers need to change according to the date.
Please can you advise how I best achieve this ?
we have a requirement to freeze the column and row column heading... so that when the user scrolls to the right the first two columns ( I refer them as "row headings") will stay and the remaining columns scroll left and when the user scrolls to the bottom the first row stays ("column headings")and the remaining rows will scroll up.. This can be easily accomplished in EXCEL by freezing the itersecting cell... How can the same be accomplished using HTML tables /ASP code.... Is there any Active X control available that can be used to accomplish the same?Our technical env is ASP and Oracle DB

View Replies View RelatedI have an asp page which the user enters a time(e.g. 12:21). I need to insert this time into a SQL Server DB, which has a smalldatetime column.
I have tried everything I can think of (such as CDate, TimeValue, FormatDateTime etc) to convert the time string, into a valid time. However, the insert always try to insert a datetime datatype (e.g. 12/12/1899 12:21:00).
I am trying to process the insert through ado, eg:
objRS.AddNew
objRS("Field1") = strText
objRS("DateField") = dteValue
objRS.Update
I use this code to dynamically create a column in a table...

instead of TEXT columns?
Is there a way to have a piece of repeating information display in multiple columns like a phone book? I need to display a list of contract numbers which will link to the actual contract.
There is no other information to display and it would be better if I could display 3 or 4 columns on the page like a phone book. Hope that makes sense. I am using Dreamweaver and it's and Access db if that helps.
