File Contents Relavence Searching
I have created a intranet site for a small department in the company i work for. Thanks to the help of these forums I have dabbled into a small bit of asp to automate a few manual processes.
One of the problems I would like to overcome if at all possible is as follows.. There is a network drive for which all the department have read access, the drive is full of useful documentation on processes and how too do things!
The major problem is that there are soo many documennts and different directories tat it would be a nightmare to try and search for what you want.... so this leads me to my question...
Is it possible to have some sort of google type relavence search that not only examines the filenames but also the contents of the files... (the files are mostly excel and word docs).

Does anyone have code that searches the contents of a string? e.g. myString = "this is a test string" . How would I see if myString contains the word 'test'?

I have a text file where each record has two fields, name and number, separated by a delimiter. I would like to sort the file contents by the second filed, number, and display to browser. I can do this in php readily, but not seeing how to do it in asp. Can it be done?

We have a need to search through an entire drive for a specific file name. The process is currently written with recursive loops through each directory and the Scripting.FileSystemObject.
Problem is, it takes forever. When I do a standard file search through Windows Explorer, it typically finds the file I'm looking for within 5 seconds. Is there another approach to file searching, or am I stuck with trying to make this recursive loop somehow more efficient?

I'm attempting to read from a text file and output the contents into one variable that I can write to the page later. I can't Response.Write the thing because of the way our system is designed. Here's the code I got so far:
<%
set objFSO =server.createobject("scripting.filesystemObject")
path = "E:******************" & session("ENTRYPAGE") & "content.asp"
path = replace(path,"www.","")
set objstream = objFSO.opentextfile(path)
do while not objstream.atendofStream
lineText = objstream.readline
lineText = lineText & lineText
loop
response.write linetext
objstream.close
%>
All I get for output is the last line of the text file twice.
Note: The content.asp that I'm trying to load in does not contain any ASP. All of the content is HTML.

I'd like to process an ASP page and pipe it's contents out to a file.
I can do this easily in PHP by using the php executable on the command line through a cron job(unix). Is there an equivalent for ASP? I see it as a less complicated cache.
So far I've only been able to output the actual script lines to a file. I want ASP to intrepret, then output.

I was looking for a method to store the contents of text file within a variable. So far I am able to read the text file and output the results using the write method. Going a step further I also wanted to replace a particular string within those same results using the "Replace" function. This works as well.
My question, how can I store the final result that write's to the screen so that I can reference it later. If you run this code, I basically want to take the verbiage that displays on the sreen and place it into a variable. Code:

This is what I need to do:
A client uploads a document (a msword .doc file) to the server, I need to search a string that document and find specific words in it (this is an Application to a School, most of them look the same, so all you can do is replace the school name in the application, but sometimes people forget to do so and get rejected for sending inappropriate application).
So I need to find in each Application possible names of other schools and alert about it.
I'm writing in ASP (I can use ASP.net as well). I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO THE SERVER (it belongs to the hosting company, and there's no way of installing anything there).

I have a vars called param1 to param10. I need to iterate through them in a loop to see if theyre empty and set them to spaces if they are. i.e
for a = 1 to 10
newparam = "param" & a
if newparam = "" then
newparam = " "
end if
next
but I want the contents of newparam i.e param1, param2 etc... to be evaluated and not newparam and then param1, param2 etc.. to be set to " " .

I am currently working on ASP. Users will input their contents into a textarea. The problem is that when they input and I retrieve them from the database, they will use the textarea space that was allocated to them and display exactly it is.
For example the text area given is 500px and i only give the display part of 250px. Despite that, it will fill up and scrollbars will appear on my bottom of the webpage and have to scroll to the right.
how i can display all text with the break lines in between yet still confined to the space of 250px.

Does anyone know of any issues interacting with asp pages from within Flash when you use Control>TestMovie ? i.e. When using a send and load, Flash seems to want to open my asp file (and return the contents in Flash) rather than run it and return a name/value pair as I'm expecting.

I have successfully been able to load text from an SQL-DB into a <textarea>.Now I need to save the edited text back to the DB But I can't seem to extract the value from the <textarea> into a vbscript-variable.
When the user clicks the submit button under the textarea I need the text to be saved into a variable, how?
Code:
<FORM METHOD=POST ID="Form1">
<TEXTAREA NAME="text1" ID="text2"><%Response.Write(Recordset("text"))%>
</TEXTAREA><br><br>
<P><INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="submit2" ID="submit3" NAME="submit4">
</FORM>

what is the best way to protect a folder of files on an asp site so that only people who have logged into the site are allowed to view the files?
would it be best to put them inside a cgi-bin and then have a page with links to the files, or is there a better option?

I'm trying to figure out if there is an easy way to combine the contents of two arrays into one array. Order does not matter, I just want them all together. I'm sort of new to working with arrays, so I don't know if there is a really basic way to do this.

I have worked in PHP / MySQL. But never worked in ASP/MSSQL. At the moment, i ma stuck with a problem. Hope someone here can figure it out.I have a list of countries in a Page. When the user MOUSE Over any Country, through Javascript, a small layer <DIV> appear that shows some data about that country. Up till now that XML File is filed MANUALLY.
Now that Data is changing frequently. What we want is that to do the same thing described above through database. Like when the user mouse over any country, that will load XML and connect the Database, extract info and then show in the same DIV layer. Or alternatively, there might be some sript, that will RUN AUTOMATICALLY daily or weekly and update all the countries data XML files. please guide me how to achieve this in ASP + MSSQL + XML + Javascriptor any combination of these.

I'm trying to access and iterate through POST variables. I'm thinking of something similar to PHP, where on a submit it creates a POST object, which is an associative array of all the variables. Is ASP the same way? Is there any way to see what is in the array and have access to it's contents without knowing the contents beforehand?
The reason I ask is because I have about 100 check boxes, and the user only checks a number of them - each check box is named differently. I want to, on the post page, to find out which ones were checked, short of putting an if else or select to check all 100 of them. Is there an easier way? I tried printing out the post: Response.Write(Request.Form()), and all that gave me was the querystring .

I am developing a website and in particular, a shopping cart for the company I work for and I have everything working fine. This website is written in ASP. When you add a product to the database, it adds it along with a UserID based on a Session variable.
Everything is working fine regarding the user functionality of updating particular product quantity and options. However I am having trouble finding any information on how to send the contents of that recordset via email, when the user decides he is ready to send it. I have no trouble sending forms and such via CDOSYS and ASP but how can I send the contents of an entire recordset?

I'm trying to compare fields in two recordsets. I'm having fun with apparently empty fields. In order to avoid displaying meaningless messages, I need to know what is in these fields - e.g. is it a space, a null, an empty string, or what?
I'm not much of a programmer - how do you display the contents of the field using asp, for example, to return the ascii character code? Or is there a simple way to check for non-printing character codes?
