I've got a SQL server database, and am using ASP to create a simple recordset.
Everything is fine, except that one column of the database is of 'text' data type. I can't seem to be able to pull anything from this field in my ASP script. All names and variables are correct, and there is data in the text field, it just comes out blank when I pull this field into my recordset.
I'm not a asp expert and only use the built in Dreamweaver stuff, the problem I'm getting is a datatype mismatch due to the fact the sql statement is expecting a text string and not a number string, can anyone have a look at the following code and point me in the right direction in regards of what I need to change so the sql statemnet know to expect a number string: Code:

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 have a text field i am pulling from a database that uses vbcrlf to create line breaks.

Question about the performance of using an include file or reading from a text file compared to hitting the database.
I set up a client's web site so they can post a weekly message and also post a "of special interest" message on their home page. Originally these messages were stored in and retrieved from an Access 2000 database. I decided to try writing the messages to a text file then retrieving it through include file and also tried the text streaming object.
I used netmechanic.com to gauge the download times for all three methods on a 56K modem. According to the results, using the database was around 4 seconds quicker. Does this sound right? The site is on a shared hosting package using Win2000.
I'm trying to write a page that will accept form POST method variables from another page and save them to an Access database via a DSN connection. I'm using code like this:
<%
SQL = "INSERT INTO myTable (postVar1,postVar2,postVar3)"
SQL = SQL & " VALUES ('" & request.form("postVar1") & "','" & request.form("postVar2") & "','" & request.form("postVar3") & "')"
dsnConn.execute(mySQL)
%>
I'd like to make sure that I clean up the text that the user inputs before trying to send it to the database. Can someone please give me an example of what ASP code I need use to get rid of quotes, slashes, and anything else a user could enter that might mess up the SQL insert?
I'm trying to put some text into the database using ADODB.Command object. Seems like a reasonable thing to do and I can do it. But in this instance my text is an HTML code which contains many quotes. But i have to save it as is into the database field.

View Replies View RelatedI have two columns in my microsoft access database.
1st column is company_logo (jpg image)
2nd column is company_name (text)
I want to build a form, a dropdown box which I would populate with the help of a sql statement from my database. The both columns from up there are associated.
When the user clicks on that dropdown box, I need that company_logo and company_name to be shown one beside another. It should list all the companies availible (taken from that sql statement or recordset).
Does anyone knows if this could be done?
Maybe I should stick just with the textual part?
