My customers webpage sends emails to everyone in the members database using
CDONTS. The customer is on the west coast, the server is on the east coast.
The email has Eastern time on it, 3 hours ahead of Pacific time. Is there
any way to set the sent time that goes out with an email??
I am trying to store the current date to an ms access database on my server.
I set it up with a dsnless connection.
Here is the statement:
Insert Into employees(timestamp) Values ('" & date() & "')"
the timestamp field is of type date/time in the ms access database.
I get an error saying the insert statement is invalid. Cannot get you the
exact error, my server is down.
But it seems that the syntax is correct.
I have an asp form which is capable of entering a Now() datetime stamp. Can anyone show me how I can then use this information to let change some text once 48 hours has passed? I.E. compare the now() time stamp with time now. As yet I've tried to use Date() but this does not count to exactly 48 hours after the initial time stamp.

I am trying to replicate the Unix Timestamp,specifically the function
mktime() in Vbscript, ASP. I have the following so far:
ThisTime = DateSerial(2004, 9, 27) + TimeSerial(0, 0, 0)
response.write DateDiff("s", "12/31/1969 00:00:00", ThisTime)
This returns the timestamp: 1096329600, and when you decode that it comes
to: 27 Sep 2004 20:00. I want to set the time too, ie. show for example: 27
Sep 2004 16:15
I'd like to stamp a field (Visitors_FulfilmentDate) with the current Date/Time (it is SQL2000 - smalldatetime datatype).
Using ASP - would like to set Visitors_FulfilmentDate to whatever is the current date/time. Tried using Now() but it doesn't work ("[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]'Now' is not a recognized function name. ") :
strSQL = "UPDATE Visitors SET Visitors_Fulfilled = 1, Visitors_FulfilmentDate = Now() WHERE Visitors_ID = "& strFulfilmentCode ....
i have some vars throughout an application that has a time stamp in the format:
8/30/2006
at the end of the app in a few places, its required that the stamp be like this format: YYYY-MM-DD
i'm trying to change this and am having no luck, any suggestions:
varDate = "8/30/2006"
Replace(varDate, inStr(Left(varDate "/", 2)&"/"), Right(varDate, 4)&"-")
I have been working on a form that updates an access database via a SQL statement. I believe I have the SQL part correct as when I do the response.write SQL I get what I believe to be correct. Code:
View Replies View RelatedHow to insert time stamp data into Access Database when insert other data together in ASP/.
View Replies View RelatedI'm a complete beginner when it comes to ASP (CF and PHP are my regulars) and am trying to help a friend out with a very basic form on his site. It's your standard issue "fill this out for more info" HTML form, which will be processed by an ASP script, and then spit out a "thank you" page at the end. The thank you page will not have to display any information about the request.
The entire form is working great, collecting the visitor's name, e-mail address, phone number, and info from some radio buttons. But we'd like to add an automatic time/date stamp so that when the form is submitted and then received by the site's owner at the other end via e-mail, it also shows the date and time it was sent. I imagine we'd use some sort of hidden field? I'm of course open to any ideas.
The format of a sample e-mail could then be:
Date/Time Submitted: 2003/04/26, 11:03 pm
Name: bob joe
E-mail: bob@joe.com
Phone Number: 000-000-0000

I am using CDONTS component to send email in ASP.
The code is some thing like this:

mail.body = "This is Email body message"

Now the question is that this code will use the Default Virtual SMTP Server in IIS, but I want to use my ISP's SMTP server. please tell me how to do this. I have used my ISP's email server in Outlook express and it is working fine. Please do not suggest to use "CDO" or "CDOSYS" to use for sending emails because I must have to use "CDONTS".
what does it mean when I don't get an error, but I also don't recieve the email?

I am trying to send an email using CDONTS, and I am having troubles with newlines. There was a past thread a while back that said to use vbNewLine to insert a break in the message, but I still can't get it to work.
I used vbNewLine, vbCrLf, chr(10) & chr(13) and my text still continues to flow right along. I want to keep it plain text rather than HTML.
Just curious... Some webapps that I develop could be deployed on older NT
systems OR Win2K3...
Is there a simple test for CDO/CDONTs that I can use in code so I could
implement both routines and use the one that's existing on the server?
my CDONTS email isn't sending.. I think the code is set up correctly but I'm not positive. Is there a way to specify a mail server, if necessary? It seems to be going through without a hitch but the emails are never arriving, to any box I send them to. So perhaps our server needs some sort of authentication before permitting outgoing mails, I'm not really sure. Is there a way to check this?

I am rather new to cdonts and using email. I am planing an email site, however I am not sure how the email is stored on the server nor do i know how to read it from the server. I would guess that it is stored in a database, if so how would it be populated?
View Replies View RelatedI have a form that needs to handle international characters withing the UTF-8
character set. I have tried all the recommended strategies for getting utf-8
characters from form input to email message and I cannot get it to work. I
need to stay with classic asp for this.
Here are some things I tried:
'CDONTS
Call msg.SetLocaleIDs(65001)
'CDOSYS
msg.HTMLBodyPart.Charset = "utf-8"
I included the following meta tag in the email HTML:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
I also tried modifying the CharSet and CodePage of all involved Request and
Responses.
I was able to Response.Write the form content on post back to the screen and
it was properly rendered. However, none of my efforts can get the email to
render with the correct codebase. I have tried opening the email in Outlook
and Thunderbird. Neither one picks up on the UTF-8 charset meta tag.

View Replies View RelatedI have a script that I've been using for years that emails my customer a confirmation, and bcc's me a copy. It's just a standard CDONTS script, nothing tricky, and I'm sure that it's scripted correctly. I've been having intermitant problems for the better part of a year where on occasion I won't get the email, but the customer will.
This problem seems to come in spurts where it will 'be down' for a few days, and then it will work again, with no change by anyone. Most of the time when it goes down, I get an email about a day later that is a bounce, saying that my address doesn't exist, and it's being returned to sender (which is me, at the same address!). I think there is something screwy with the way my provider has either our server or email server setup, but after at least a dozen trouble tickets, they don't seem to have fixed anything.
Has anyone ever seen this? Bottom line is what could cause the script to work every time to an outside address but intermitantly not to one within the domain?
how to restrict email attachment file type as well as file size? If anybody has idea about it.?
View Replies View RelatedI'm running Win2K... and have an ASP script that uses the CDONTS object properties to send email from a web-enabled ASP form. Problem is, the page is loading fine, with no errors. However, when I check the '/queue' folder in my Inetpub directory, I see all my mail queued there. It never gets sent. There are no emails in the '/badmail' folder, or in any other folder in '/mailroot'. What gives?
I'm kinda vague on how SMTP works exactly, in Win2K. What I'm trying to do is to send email over a LAN to a client. I want to avoid installing MS Exchange Server if possible. Am just trying to have a client on the LAN send email, and then have the client's Outlook retrieve said mail. All this done offline, without ever connecting to the Net.
I am building a web script that will enable a user to compose an email and send it to potentially thousands of subscribers on their mailing list from a DB. The ASP script will use CDONTS or Jmail.
Problem is that I told my host about the app and they say they only allows 1000 emails to be sent daily from my server. The script will possibly send thousands of emails daily. Any body have experience with using ASP for bulk emailing, and how to get around server limitations?
I have a script that send emails using CDONTS. There are users that have keyboards that support Spanish characters. I am able to render the chars correctly in the body using HTML substitutions, however, the subject line comes out bad. Is there a good way to handle this situation?
