I'm gonna be writing a new ASP based system for work for staff to book in deliverys with our warehouse - I'm starting to think about the database design and i'm trying to think how best to work it - Each day will be a record - with a date field - but I have no idea how to automatically create a date field with concurrent dates - and also we can book deliverys upto 6 months in advance, so there needs to be a lot of records created.
View RepliesI'm trying o get my head around XML and using ASP to parse documents.
I've managed to kncok together the code below to send a request to an
external server and then pop the response into a variable and format it
a bit.
What I'm trying to do is insert the data into a nice HTML table, maybe
using the node names as column headings. Has anyone got any suggestions
on how I can do this? and also, is this the best methid of performing
this task? I need it to be xbrowser compatible so I figured server side
would be the best option. Code:
I've written several scenarios where the end user needs to enter data into a textarea (descriptions, messges etc) which becomes part of a form. End users often put apostrophe's and carrige returns in the textarea... however, when the code i write is submitted to the database, it generates an sql command from the page that sent the action.
Client Side:
<form action="somepage.asp" method="post">
<input type="text" name="emailaddress">
<textarea cols="20" rows="5" name="comments"></textarea>
</form>
On code submission...
sql="insert into tableName (email,comments) values ('" & request.form("emailaddress") & "','" & request.form("comments") & "');"
db.execute(sql)
Now, when strange people put carrige returns, it stuffs up the string and therefore produces an error, and to make matters worse if it did recognise a carrige return, it wouldn't be displayed on HTML output. Apostrophes are even worse - they signify the end of a variable in the SQL sentance Can anyone help me and figure out a new way of writing to the DB?

I have a web form (fine so far) which POSTs to a PHP routine which mails the information. Very standard. Now I would like to update a database as well as emailing the form contents.
The problem is that the database has to br MS SQL and I can't install the bits to make it work with PHP - so the database part HAS to be ASP. The mail bit HAS to be PHP as that's the only mail routine I can use. Code:
is it possible to do a insert, add, and a redirect all on the same page?
for example... signup.asp. there's a text box labeled Acctid. If you don't have an acctid please enter "0000" otherwise enter one. This box is used to see if they have an existing account in the database by using an UPDATE query and if they don't it does an INSERT query with acctid = 0000 for all non customers. What I want the if.then.else statement to do is to
If acctid = "0000" then
conn.execute acct_add
(and if sucessful to response.redirect "/yay.asp"
Else if NOT acctid = "0000" then
conn.execute acct_update
(but I want it to return an error if the update wasn't sucessful either because the acount doesn't exist or watever and if the update was sucessful to response.redirect "/yay.asp") END IF
Do ya get it?
I am about to get rid of TZO on my computer, and I've been using it's photo software to view photo's on my web site. I could write something in ASP (or asp.net), but I figure why spend time re-inventing the wheel if there's something already out there.
Does anyone have any recommendations on ASP apps that I can use for viewing photo's on my web site? I would rather it be free if possible, and it needs to just look at a folder, or series of folders, and build a thumbnail type of view from what's there. In other words, I don't want to have to populate a database with all of my pictures.
I have a combobox that on page load is disabled. I've noticed that the information will not load into the combo box if this is the case. Is there a way to load the information and then disable it so the user has no idea what has happened? I load another combobox before this one, that is NOT disabled and so loads properly.
Code:
="1" name="County" disabled="true">
<%
While not objrs.eof
%>
<option value ="<%=objrs("County")%>">
<%=objrs.fields("County")%>
<%
objrs.movenext
wend

I was wondering if anybody could help me translate this from my native Cold Fusion tongue to ASP? :
#DateFormat(Visitors_DateTime, 'dd mmmm yyyy')#

Would just like to display the full date and time really.
i have an admin page where i have to enter dates.
I enter them in french format : month/day/year, i save, when the page is reloaded, they appear in french format, "day/month/year"... if i save again, they will ve swapped again.. and so on....
what i'd like to know, is how to know the database supported format, the server date format and how to correct this little problem in my task management system i am developing.
lately i just migrate my website to a US webhosting (i am from malaysia) and since then the date is 13 hrs behind.
Understand that to solve this problem i will just need:
DateAdd("h", +13, now())
and the output will be:
4/16/2006 12:30:03 AM
The question is how do i just get 4/16/2006 (without the time)?
I have this query:
SELECT COUNT(appold.reason) AS Insufficient_Information
FROM appold
WHERE appold.reason LIKE 'Insufficient Information' AND (appold.`date out`
BETWEEN MMColParam1 AND MMColParam2)
MMColParam1 #01/01/2003# Request.QueryString("date1")
MMColParam2 #20/01/2003# Request.QueryString("date2")
and using this link to set the values:
page1.asp?date1=#01/05/2003#&date2=#30/05/2003#
When I test this in the recordset dialog it shows up with the correct count but when I use the link as above I get a 0 count, what am I doing wrong?

When I try to select records which have a date greater than todays date it brings back the incorrect records. I think I'v tried everything to get it working and may have missed something. Basically here's what happens.
Todays date is 04/05/2005, but the sql will return records which have a date of 05/04/2005 or greater. Heres the sql:
Select * From trainingCalendar2 where startDate > #04/05/2005# Order By startDate;
And Returns:
2 Course Test 4 07/04/2005 Mandatory Training
10 SAP Training 29/04/2005 External Course
12 Create Course 2 17/05/2005 Internal/Upskilling
I have checked the regional settings and they are correct. When I open the database and look at the records they are of the correct format.
Even when I look at the records in the site that are the correct format. I think it's access but I thought that access was supposed to have the same regional settings as the computer.

i have a page which allows the user to enter an amount of holiday for a year. so i have a inputbox and a submit button. user details are kept in a sql server database in a table. and one of the fields is startdate.. which basically when the user starts using this system he has to enter his personal details and which one of them is the startdate field.
i need to create a function of something that allows me to add the number 5 to the amount which the user adds for a holiday year. This only done once therefor if the users start date exceeds 5 year i need to create a function to add the number 5 to it. the code which i have at the moment ... basically selects the user from a View which i have in my sql server database. obviously it retrieves the users.. record.. depending on what the user inputs as a holiday number in the input box and then it is updated into the table in my database.

I need help with selecting records between certain dates from an Access 2000 db. The dates are held date type in the short date format so they look like so 16/03/2004.

Code:
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM events WHERE StartDate <= 16/04/2004"

View Replies View RelatedBasically I have a date that a person completed an exam. A retake date is set off of this completion date (I grab the date and add a certain number of months - i.e. 24, so a completion date of 01/01/2007 would have a retake date of 01/01/2009.)
I'm generating a report for supervisors to be able to look over the employees test history to make sure that the employee is up-to-date on testing.
I want to be able to compare Retake to the current date. If the retake date is in the future (or on the same day - if someone were to look on 01/01/2009) then the employee has a "satisfied" next to them. But if the retake date is in the past, then there is an "incomplete" next to their name.
I am trying to put together a little code that will take the current date and add X number of weekdays to that date.

Which format does the IsDate function in asp checks for? I'm taking a date from a form and inserting it into a sql server database which stores the date in mm/dd/yyyy format. Does asp use the same format or do I need to convert it? If so, how do I convert it?

I store dates in my table as
FDate TDate NoDays
Where Fdate is From Date
TDate is To Date
NoDays is number of days.
We use this to record holidays for our employees.
I would like to write a SQL query which will display all the records where
Fdate or Tdate are within the current month. Not very good at writing SQL
hence need some help.
Some sample data can be like this
Fdate TDate NoDays
15/05/04 18/5/04 4
29/04/04 2/5/04 5
29/5/04 3/06/04 4
If that was the data in the my table and running this query I would expect
it include all the three records when searching for month of "May" as all
three records have atleast one day which falls in the month of May.
