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:

How to write asp code to remove duplicates in an array.
For Eg: A()=(1,5,10,15,10,20,5)
After removal of duplicates it should be
A()=(1,5,10,15,20).
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 have an array like this: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 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 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.

I have this table that has two columns Department and RecId. what I am doing is I need to give access to different people in different departments. So if I am in billing I say billing 76 which is my rec id and than if I also need acess to accounting I say Accounting 76.

I want to check whether the value in recordset is "=> 3 ".
I try "If rs => '3' then...".
But it doesn't seems working. Can I can't check the condition by using the recordset like how i written above?
Or do I need get the value in recordset and assign to a variable in order to check the condition. Please advice.
Let say my rs now stores a value of "2". Can I check with the following code.

set rs = server.createobject("...")
rs.open "Select...", objconn
if rs >=3 then 'THIS LINE DOESN"T SEEMS WORKING

Is it possible to have an ASP page which checks if a user is in a certain group in Active Directory (AD). For example jbloggs is logged in and belongs to the group "project_allowed". When jbloggs goes to project.asp it will allow him access
However when jsmith is logged in and belongs to no groups and tries to access project.asp it will deny him access.
The script is designed as a form validator which checks fields for various criteria and then sends a mail with the form contents. Since 40 different forms will be plugged into this script, there needed to be complete seperation between the two.
I've managed it so far by checking for required fields by putting the word 'required' into the name of the field. The script then sources out any fields which has this text and checks them to see if they are filled out.
The problem I've come across now is that I need to check for field length. My idea was to put the amount of characters needed into the name of the field in the form and then have the script check with a Reg Exp. However, Im not too sure of the regular expression needed to check for this.
Can someone suggest one? The one I have at the moment is [1-14] but say I had a field like this: <input type="text" name="passwordrequired12"> That would match bout for 1 and 12. Any ideas?

The scenario is that I m making a form where users can register for my message board. The form will take in all the details and pass on to another asp file which checks whether the username is already in use or not. If its in use then it says that Username in use else the page is displaying error.
I m using the following sql.
"select * from members where user='" & username & "'"
The error is something like record cannot be found. Either EOF or BOF or the record was deleted.

I got the below code from somewhere ages ago. I have a list of links on my site that link to other sites but I want to check if the link is a valid link automatically and if it fails after x checks (checks every 7 days) then to mark the link as a possible broken link
the below seems to take ages to process and was wondering if there is a better way to do the below. Code:
How to re-write this so it can error check for each individual field. Username, email, password etc.

I have a simple question. Can you check if a number has been passed through a form? For example I making a website for a property letting company and they upload the property themselves. But if you you put in text into the rent field, it throws up an error when adding to database obviously.I do validate the in put before adding it to the database so was thinking about another IF statement checking that a number was entered before they get as far as adding to the database and throwing up errors
