I have a string value which has the bellow content.
Dim aString as string
aString = "1,2,4,2,2"
where aString is a parameter set dynamically based on the user loggin into the system. Now All I want to do is to eliminate the duplicates. ( In this case I need to keep only one "2" and remove the remaining "2" , so my final string should be "1,2,4" ).
How could I do that. I was thinking of an array, but the issue is, If the "aString" is empty I believe array will return a error. So any other way of doing ?. Or simple asp functions which will eliminate this.
I want to avoid using a RDBMS because I don't have time to administer a real database if something goes wrong (for a free website).
So when ever a user submits information, it will dump into a unique html file. Then a link will be created to it on the home page. I am concerned about locking the homepage incase more than one user needs a link created at the same time.
Any suggestions on how to handle this? The user information is not confidential and is for public posting so I'm not concerned with securing information and logins.
We are using ASP.NET on IIS5 to process requests in a database.
How can one make choices in the .aspx based on if a user has or hasn't changed a field? Is it possible to control the ASP.NET environment by use of some client side scripting ( ?changes=yes to URL) or is there a way to tell in .aspx which Label elements has changed?
Only solution i can think of currently is to query the DB and then do an field by field comparision. Is that the best way?
I asp.net pages that run on an intranet IIS server. Some op the pages use XLM DOM doc.Load(sPath) to open and parse a XML file. Every time the doc.Load(sPath) executes in IE6 a warning message comes up "This page is accessing information that is not under it's control. . . "
How can I avoid this message. It is a great anoyance to the users. Do I need to create some time of certificate to pass...
I have 4 ASP pages where an user can update some fields and submit the page, so that the fields are updated in the Database(Sqlserver), I need to handle one situation.
1) At a time I need to allow only one user to update the details in a page.
2) I need to stop other users who are trying to access the same page concurrently(probably with a message or Redirecting to other page where he can see the details in a report format).
3) Session timeout in my application is 60, So if the first user leaves the page open for a long time , I think it would be a problem....the other session has to wait for a long time. I have no choice in decreasing the session timeout interval.
As part of a data input script, I ask for a user name to be input into an Access DB field called surprisingly, "UserName". I would like to ensure that username is not duplicated. How do I do that before inserting the data. My example show in the incomplete script below doesn't work? Code:
A member logs on and enters a record, if one already exists for that date, then they get a message saying so. If not the record is added and some text is displayed. But it still allows me to enter records even if one already exists! is it because I am storing my dates as strings? Code:
arrColour = split("blue,blue,green,red,purple,blue,green,yellow",",") What I need to be able to do is to remove all items of the value "blue" from the array. I can just run a dictionary function to delete all duplicate values, because some of them need to be retained. I just need to delete all of them of a particular value. how this can be done?
I have declared a multidimensional array as follows. dim parray(100,5). Now this array contains some duplicate values. So how to remove duplicate values in this multidimensional array.
I've got a form that allows the user to search a table for data and if it finds that the data is not there, it should insert what is missing into a new table. But I'm not sure as to how I would check the records before I insert records. Code:
There are thousands of records in each. I need to check for duplicate email addresses across the two tables and remove them from tblSaved if they appear in tblNewsletter.
I have a permission tracking app that I am working on, and I have made the insert page for it. I am having issues on how to prevent duplicates from getting entered.
Currently the interface for the app has a mixture of select boxes, list boxes and checkboxes. The form submits the page to processAIMR.asp and then does the inserting. I am using a loop to insert a new record for each checkbox checked or listbox entry selected. Code:
I have an array which is made up of a selection of place names, such as "London, London, Lisbon, Paris, London, Madrid, London, Madrid", what I need to do is loop through the array and get it to find out which item is duplicated the most times, and then have this item equal to a variable, such as TopPlace, which in this case would be TopPlace = London, I have no idea how to achieves this, could someone offer me any help on doing this?
i have created an array from recordset containing user names eg. (davidp, davidp, evenf, patricka, rebeccah). which i have sorted in alphabetical order, but i need to identify duplicates in this array and the number of times it has been duplicated.
I am pulling some records out of a database which have a Description field containing several words, and storing this information in an array using GetRows().
Then using a for-next loop I am going through these records and using the Split() function to get the first word of the Description and then adding it as an option to a dropdown list.
The problem is I get lots of duplicates in the drop down because lots of the descriptions have the same first word. Using DISTINCT in the SQL statement won't help much because at that stage the descriptions arent the same. Code:
I am returning a list form a db: this could be 1,2,3,4,12,67,1,2,34 so basically I am looking at how to remove the duplicates before doing another select. I saw a thread here with a funciton to do this bu it does not seem to work.
