Format Records From Access Database
I have an access db from which I would like to display records in a formatted manner. I can display all the records one after the other on one page no problem, but I would like to display maybe 6 records on one page (3 across, 2 down). I would then need a page break for printing purposes.
Displaying all the records on one page would be fine if I can put a page break in so that they print correctly. I currently have it fomatted correctly, but my loop is not working correctly. Instead of different records displaying, I have 6 of the same record displaying, then the next record displaying 6 times, etc.
Even if it's better to do this over multiple pages, that would be fine as long as I can print the report with all records by clicking Print only once. Maybe even display the records on multiple pages with next and previous buttons, but when the user clicks print, then it would print a report from access.
I hope this all makes sense. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions or pointers on the best way to do this both for viewing and printing purposes? Code:

I have the tables set up in Access, viewing in column format on ASP pages but now the company wants the schedule reports to be in a wall-calendar type format. I've searched and found calendar scripts but I need one that's creates a table resizable to a report size format. Using the existing MS Access db I've written is also a plus.
Any suggestions on where to start?

I'm trying to pull the last 5 records from my database.
<% j=5
rs.MoveLast
While ((j>0) AND (NOT rs_article.BOF))%>
''Execute HTML and data insertion here
<%rs_article.MovePrevious
j=j-1
Wend%>
Everytime I attempt to run this code, I recieve an HTTP 500- Internal Server Error. It tells me no more than that. I know that my connection settings are OK because when I move forward through the database (first five records), the code executes without error. And yes, my Cursor type is Dynamic.
Alternatively, I would also like to know how to add new recordset to the beginning of a database rather than the end.

I have a site using Access 2K and ASP.
The site uses frames and the ASP page appears in between two of the frames;
so I have a limited amount of space to present the DB information. I want
the ASP page to have a restricted number of characters showing horizontally
and to automatically wrap if the line limit is surpassed. Can this
formatting be set in the ASP code for particular fields?
Also, I'd like to indent some of the data that's being pulled from the DB.

I am storing dates in a database. WHen i come to do sql queries on the dates access is interpreting them as US format (mm/dd/yyyy). When the date is stored in the db it is in the correct uk format (dd/mm/yyyy) but when asp passes the queries to access the date format changes if the day is above 13.
For example if the date being searched is 10/2/2006 (10th feb 2006) it is searching the database for 2nd October 2006. If the i pass is 13/02/2006 (13th feb 2006) it searches it correctly.
I have tried setting the session.lcid to 2057 but this makes no difference. I read somewhere that access automatically treates dates as US format and only tries another format if the us format doesnt make sense. Is there any way around this?

Now the date appears fine in the db. however wen i retrieve the data and displays in on a form, it is back to it's default format(mm/dd/yyyy). is there anyway whereby i can change it?maybe something like FormatNumber(rs("FromDate")) or whatsoever?

I have a DateTime stamp in one of my Access database columns. Using now() as the default value, it enters records in the following format:
17/06/2005 14:28:40
This is perfect. UK format, just as I want.
However, when I pull this record into an ASP page it appears in a different format:
6/17/2005 14:28:40 AM
How can I stop it from re-writing the data into American format? I just need to display it exactly as it is in the database.

Is it possible to store html tags in a database field so that when data is retrieved from this field the formating is retained? For example I have an address field in my database, which I return using:
<p><%=(rsType.Fields.Item("DAT_Address").Value)%>
However they are times where I may want to have my city, state etc on seperate lines by using <br>, but right now if I store a <br> in my database it does not affect the formating of my displayed address.

I set up a menu program for a client a few days ago using ASP and an Access database. I have a field in a form with a popup calendar. The form field is such that a date will be entered as 09/05/2005 (short date).
I specifed as much in the Access database when setting it up. Ok, so it was working great for a few days but then today I went to open the program on my father in laws computer (in Hungarian) and when I open the Access database, the date field is entered like this - 2005.05.09 I am clueless as to what is going on. Anyone shed some light?

Is there a way to GROUP records from an MS Access database?I'm using Dreamweaver Ultradev 4.0-programming in VB Script.Macromedia says that stored procedures aren't available when using MS Access (Only MS SQL) and Grouping isn't available using MS Access.Id like to query the database and group the records like so
Category A
-- Item 1
-- Item 2
-- Item 3
Category B
-- Item 5
-- Item 6
-- Item 7
i believe there's a way to hand code the query to work with MS Access.

Anyone know if it is possible to update/insert a database record into a dynamically specified field.
The code I have here holds data in an asp session, ownerId, storeid and product type.
I can insert a record into the Productcat table, fields OwnerId and surfboards, no problem.
But what I would like is to insert the ownerid then insert poduct type into the field sepcified in the session variable (session("prodtype")) and/or strprodtpye
For Example
Insert OwnerId + product type into productcat into fileds ownerId and field labled ''strprodtype'' (variable, surfboard, wetsuit, boots, etc)
SQLstatement = "INSERT INTO Productcat (Ownerid,'"&strprodtype&"') "
I have tried using different methods, but the closest I got was IIS error msg ='field not found ("Surfboards", "wetsuits", "boots", etc)' Code:

I am trying to provide a paged listing of Access DB table data using ADO. I have a problem using the AbsolutePage method. I am using the following:
[VBS]
objRs.Open strSQL, objDbConn, adOpenStatic, adLockReadOnly, adCmdText
objRs.PageSize = 5
objRs.CacheSize = 5
objRs.MoveFirst
objRs.AbsolutePage = 24
Response.Write(objRs.AbsolutePage)
Do While objRs.AbsolutePage = 24 And Not objPubRs.EOF
Response.Write(objRs("data"))
objRs.MoveNext
Loop
[/VBS]
The line "Response.Write(objRs.AbsolutePage)" writes "-1" and the loop does not write any data.
If I remove the "objRs.AbsolutePage = 24 And" from the loop test it will write recordset data starting with the proper page position but continues to the end of the recordset (including all following pages).
With objRs.AbsolutePage reporting -1 I cannot test out of the loop based on the recordset page number.

I have an ASP file that retrieves records from an Access database and displays them in the browser. The problem is that the records come out unsorted. I need to sort them by entry date. I have a field in the table called "EntryDate" that is in the format MM/DD/YYYY. Can I sort by this field? If so, what would the SQL statement be?

I am using the code below to add a date input into an access database.
Quote: rs.Addnew
rs("Date")= Request.Form("Date")
Instead of inserting a date with the format dd/mm/yy, a date format of yy/mm/dd will be inserted into the database.
I entered the following code before the insertion Quote: response.write request.form("Date") and it displayed the correct date format as dd/mm/yy.
Pls how do I insert the date into the database for it to store the date as dd/mm/yy instead of as yy/mm/dd. The date format in the date field of the database is dd/mm/yy.

I am adding simple records to a fairly simple access database with the following code
rsEntry.Fields("Player1") = ShortName(Player1)
rsEntry.Fields("Player2") = ShortName(Player2)
'Write the updated recordset to the database
rsEntry.Update
rsEntry.Close
adoCon.Close
Set rsEntry = Nothing
Set adoCon = Nothing
How can I SIMPLY :-) prevent duplicate records from being added? I know I can set the index property on the fields but that mean handling the errors - not sure how to do this.
OR I could write the code to seach the DB before update - which may be the only way :-(
Is there a simple way?

Does anyone know if it's possible to use the records stored in an Access 2002 database to log users into an ASP.net page? I'm trying to code it in vb.net but im not sure how it could be done. Basically I think I need 2 text boxes on the ASP page where the user can enter their name and password.
I then somehow need to retrieve the name and password from fields in the database (using ADO.net i think) and compare them with those entered by the user. If they match then I want to load another page, and if not then I want to display a message saying login details are incorrect.
Any help on this subject would be much appreciated- the fields i have at the moment are called 'User' and 'Password' in a table called PERSON.

I have done this, but I have a problem in the case that if an IDNumber is unique in the destination table.
How can I, In the case that record (IDNumber) already exists, to skip that record and continue normally with the rest of records. Not to update that record but to skip that record.

I am trying set up a page where the user can view records chosen by the year.
I want to use a dropdown menu/list. Having trouble figuring out the sql behind this.
My db table has about 10 fields in it, one of which is the year this record was created. i want the enduser to be able to enter the page, and first step is to select a year to view. Again, i want this to be chosen using a drop down menu. After clicking I would like the page to show a simple table pulling up all the records from that year.
i know this sounds simple enough, but i cannot find this info/tutorial anywhere.. you guys are my only hope.

I've got this bit of code that prints out the data from a database to a webpage. Some of the entries in the db are blank whereas others aren't. The code checks if its blank and moves to the next record. If it's not blank it lables it and prints the data stored in the db cell.
The prob that it won't print out the db info in the else statement. If I get rid of the if statement completly, it prints every cell including the blank ones. I'm drawing a blank on how to fix it. Could be because I've been looking at it too long.....
