Displaying Information Based Off An Empty Field
I've been searching for an answer to this for quite some time now and have found nothing, so maybe (hopefully) someone out there will be able to help me.
At my work, we have a lot of folders for different jobs we've done. And right now, we have more than one person making the folders for all the new jobs that we get. I am trying to make a database were it will only show the jobs that have not had folders made. In order to do this, I've created a field titled "Initials". I want the webpage to pull up all the records where the Initials field is empty, but I'm having trouble doing that. I've tried a few different things and have found no success.
I'm not having a problem accesses the database or updating it, just displaying the right information. I'll give a little illustration (because I'm never good with words):
Say I have 3 jobs: Job #1, Job #2, and Job #3. Someone has already made job folders for Job #1, but Job #2 and Job #3 still need to be made. Since Job #1 has been made, that means there are initials in the initials field of the database and thus, I do not want that Job being displayed on the "To Be Made" page. Job #2 and Job #3 do not have initials in the initials field and as such, I want to display those jobs....

I have an asp page that displays informaton from an Access database. I want to create a form that allows users to display only data that matches their search criteria.
I have made many forms like this in Front Page with the Database results wizard, but I want to manually code it. Code:

I have a form that submits to itself that also has some if statements. Sort of like this:
If the form is filled out successfully > display X
If not > list errors and replicate form (remembering entered values)
Form
Everything works beautifully, but I just noticed that there is a huge space at the top of my page in IE. Usually use FF, which displays fine, so never noticed this problem. If I take out the 'if' statements the space goes away.... so its like IE is leaving space for the if statements which should be hidden when the page is first loaded. Code:

I am trying to better a process our dept. now uses. Currently a person updates a Word document throughout the day of of actions items, basically a list of issues with due dates, responsible parties, comments, etc..At the end of the day the file is converted to a PDF and posted on the intranet.
Seems a little stale. Is ASP and a MS access database a good approach to providing real-time reporting to ther client? i.e. a person could push a button labeled "action items" and be returned a printable, decently formatted page?

I have a input form with 5 fields. One of the fields is MajorNo and the other is named Description.
I have a reference table in my MS Access database (tblMajor)that lists the major numbers and their descriptions.
I would like to have the description field in my ASP automatically filled based on the major number entered on the form, so the user will only need to input the major number when submitting to the Access table (tblSalesTotal).

I currently have entries in my dbase with time stamps. Does anyone know how I would display only those records with the time stamp that reflects a particular day. For example I want to display all records from today which would be 8/23/2004 on the page.
Im assuming this has something to do with the Date () function but i dont understand how it could incorporate it into code.

i want to count all the records in my database where a certain field is empty.
heres my statement:
"SELECT Count(*) As Total FROM table WHERE field1='value' AND field2=' ' "
gives an error.
If it not possible. can the next be done:
1 count all the records.
2 count the records where field2='Yes'
3 subtract the two to get where field 2 is empty?
i know it's just something small, but i can't seem to figure it out. i also tried field2 != 'Yes'

I'm listing records from my db and each company has 3 address lines ie address, address2, address3. In most cases 3 and sometimes 2 are empty. As my ASP looks like this
[VBS]
<p><strong>Address/strong> <%= rs("Address") %><br>
<%= rs("Address2") %><br>
<%= rs("Address3") %><br>
<strong>Town/strong> <%= rs("Town") %><br>
<strong>Post Code/strong><%= rs("PostCode") %><br>
<strong>Telephone/strong> <%= rs("Telephone") %>
[/VBS]
then I end up with the first line of the address and two blank lines. How could I avoid that by checking if the fields have content, only then display them?

I have a DB with a date field that is empty
Because of this the records sometimes get included in searches because their
contents are less than a particular search.
so..I had planned to populate them with any old date.
BUT I CAN'T!!!
I have tried all sorts..and nothing seems to work.. Code:

I am doing a project that uses ASP VBScript on Dreamweaver. I try to display data based on the hyperlink on the previous page, where I click on the hyperlink("ID of the informationfile") and the following page will show the detailed information of this particular file.
However, I can't display the next page even if I add the hyperlink and the required parameter on the records that are shown on the first page. I need to ask how can I display the detailed information based on the hyperlink, or in fact the fileID from the first page ??? Code:

I am trying to determine if a field in a database is empty or not. The code I have is this....
(before this I have code that opens up the database, gets the data from the table. the var "content" holds the data if any from the database.)
if content = "" then
alert1 = "content field is empty"
else
alert1 = "content field contains text"
end if
This doesn't seem to work. I also tried...
if (content) then
alert1 = "content field is empty"
else
alert1 = "content field contains text"
end if
No luck yet. Any ideas?

I know it should be very easy but I am new in ASP so I could not figured out.
Here is the simplified version of my code:
thePaymentID= request.querystring("IDValue")
SQLqueryPayment= "SELECT sum(paid) as paid, sum(Interest) as interest
FROM payment WHERE payment_ID =" & thePaymentID & ""
dim rstempPayment
set conntemp=server.createobject("adodb.connection")
conntemp.Open "DSN=payment"
set rstempPayment=conntemp.execute(SQLqueryPayment)
fldValPaid = rstempOwner.Fields("paid").Value
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need to find out if "fldValPaid" hold anything. I will use it an IF ELSE statement. In payment table a particular record could exist or not. How do I find out by evaluating "fldValPaid" if any record exists or not. I have to find out using "fldValPaid" ...I can not use number of record/record return or any other method.

I don't know what i am doing wrong. I have an access database,and One of my fields is
Memo format. So when i try to display the information in that field, I was unable to do so, nothing would come up in IE. but the data is there in the fields.something like this.
response.write(rs("description"))
when i changed the field to "text" format, everything worked perfectly fine, ASP was able to display the information stored in that field. But when i changed it back to memo, it would display nothing.is there like a special way of displaying information stored in a Memo field?

Can anyone tell me on how to retain the information that was being key in previously and mark which field was being filled in incorrectly rather than reset all the field to previous value?
I have done checking like this but i think it is not quite user friendly:
function verifyBlank(thisForm){
if (thisForm.TeachersName.value == "none" || thisForm.Lab.value == 0 || thisForm.Class.value == 0 || thisForm.Subject.value == 0 || thisForm.PeriodFrom.value == 0 || thisForm.PeriodTo.value == 0 || thisForm.Day.value == "none" || thisForm.Month.value == "none" || thisForm.Year.value == "none")
{
alert('Incomplete information');
return false;
}
return true;
}

I'm getting an error when I'm retreaving from a "text field" in the database and it has no data in it. I'm using MYSQL version 3.23.58-nt. I have the same script running a different system and I don't get this error. It justs output nothing and continues with the loop.
This has to be an ASP problem when retrieving data from the database. I've change the Field for Message to "varchar(252)" vice "text" in the database and stoped giving me error. But I still need to use the type "text" in the database since my "Message" will be longer then 252 caracter. Code:

What I would like to happen on this page is that when a user selects a company name from a drop down list, his selection autopopulates the cID field based on the selection. The drop down list is getting its choices from the customer table.

my question is regarding using ASP to loop through the results of a sql query and calculate a monthly total based on a date field.
I am using the following query to total the number of train rides for a given branch by day type (weekday, Sat., Sun.) and create a 3 month rolling avg. (to diminish large fluctuations in the data). I am using Oracle 9i to store the data.
Please see below for the database query, the query output, and the desired output using ASP to sum the rides for each month. Code:

I saw creole's post regarding a similar CF function and thought I'd start a similar ASP thread. If I have an article (entirety of kept in a field adequately named "article") how would I select only the first, say 450 words, to be displayed on a page....followed by a prev/next nav item. Naturally, page 2 would pick up where it left off. How to do this? Or do I have to split the article up into article_sec1, article_sec2, etc?

I know how to display a text field from an mdb file. You type: <%= CmdPopulateStates("fieldname") %>
where CmdPopulateStates is declared as:
Set CmdPopulateStates = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
But if 'fieldname' was a memo field rather than text field then the information isn't displayed. In fact, if it's anything other than text then it won't be displayed. How do I display other field types?

I am using a Relational database for my site and i have the following tables:
FIXTURES, GAMEDATES
the fields in FIXTURES are:
GameDate
Home
Away
(All of the above are numerical fields)
the fields in GAMEDATES are:
DateID(integer)
GameDate(#Date Field#)
What i have done is in the GAMEDATE field in the FIXTURES table i have used the ID number of the date that i wish to assign to that record - using a LEFT JOIN to display the actual date that is pulled from the GAMEDATES table (That which corresponds to the relevant id used in Fixtures)
The problem is that in some of my code i want to display records using sql and sometimes in the where clause i use the following:
WHERE Fixtures.GameDate<=(Date())
obviously meaning WHERE GAMEDATE is LESS THAN or EQUAL to TODAY.
The thing is when i use the join it does not use the where clause and displays all of the records in the FIXTURES table.
Does any one know how to get around this, i have not received any error messages it just isnt displaying the right data

Im comparing values in a field while doing a loop if sAct<>myData(5,i) then At the end of the loop I make the value of sAct equal the current myData
This will work when comparing other fields withing my recordset (so I know the statement works) but it will not work for the field I want to compare. The only difference with this field is that it has null values. Could this be the problem? if so, how do I deal with nulls?
