Using The JOIN LEFT Function In A Statement
I am currently having a problem with one of my ASP pages; Currently, in the SELECT, I am using JOIN LEFT functions which work fine (see the code below). However, I have now created a new table which I have successfully linked to the other tables.
However, I am not sure how I would word the JOIN LEFT statement for the new table.
The new table is located at Report.Report I have tried to have a go, but am I missing something? I always get an error message saying, Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14' [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in JOIN operation. Code:
Odd Left() Error
I'm doing some text manipulation and I'm getting a strange error. My code is:
[vbs]
modT = trim(left(CommandArray(x), inStr(CommandArray(x), "-") - 1))
[/vbs]
CommandArray is an array created by a split() statement (so it contains strings). It's content at the time if execution (if I response.write it) is "Policies -name:Board -public:yes". What I the line above to do is return "Policies". All the math should work out, but I get this error:
Code:

I am having a problem with the following code:
<%
If Len(TestRS.Fields.Item("Testimonial").value) > 150 Then
Response.Write(Left(TestRS.Fields.Item("Testimonial").Value,150)&""... <br><font size=1><a href=""/Testimonials.asp"">Read More</a></font>")
Else
Response.Write(TestRS.Fields.Item("Testimonial").Value)
End If
%>
I am getting a null response from TestRS.Fields.Item("Tesimonial").Value after it is processed by the Len function.
I am getting the following result: Quote: "... Read More This tells me that the len function is analysing the string to be greater than 150 charachters yet the string is not being expressed.
Left Outer Join
I am working with two databases. One is dockets which holds all kinds of information about upcoming legal hearings. The second one is additional parties which holds additional records related to the dockets data table.
Not all dockets have additional parties so when I need to display information about a case I may or may not need records from there so I am using a left outer join.
It works perfectly EXCEPT for one small matter. The field that I am joining on (petitionCaseNumber) is turning up empty after the join.
Below is the join.
varSQL = "SELECT * FROM Dockets LEFT OUTER JOIN additionalParties ON Dockets.petitionCaseNumber = additionalParties.petitionCaseNumber WHERE dockets.petitionCaseNumber = '" & numberIn &"'"
When I say something like response.write rst("petitionCaseNumber") I get nothing if I say response.write rst("dockets.petitionCaseNumber") I get an error.
How do I refer to this field or how do I get this field to contain the case number?
Grabbing Left/right Of A Variable Name
I have several checkboxes named in the following format:
chktable_city~20
chktable_state~WI
chktable_zipcode~12312
I need to be able to pull the table names and values from each checkbox name (for example, I would need to pull the "table_city" and "20" from the checkbox above).
In short, how do I pull out the table_city and 20 from the first example. Since the table names and values vary in size, I can't just do a regular mid, left, right function.

View Replies View RelatedTidy Connections Left Open
Many a page has ADO Connection objects that were opened but never closed. The Connection object allocates its own resources when it is opened. When the object goes out of scope without being explicitly closed, the resources ASP allocated for it are freed, but the resources it allocated on its own are not. These eventually clutter up the server and slow it down to a crawl.
My question is, is there a way to track down these orphaned resources and forcibly free them from ASP, without restarting IIS or the server? Or does one have to wait for the unused Connections to time out and release themselves? I know that good coding practice is best, but is there a temporary fix to tidy up these connections left open?
Combine The LEFT And VbCrLF Thingy
I have used thecode which is below to get x characters on to display
<%= LEFT(rsName.Fields.Item("columnname").Value,50)%>
It works fine but when I use this same code to get x characters plus display it using VBCRLF, with the <br> with writing the code :
<%=Replace LEFT
(Recordset1.Fields.Item("Detail").Value,VbCrLf,"<br><br>",50)%>
it gives me error so please can you tell me how can i trim the characaters and at the same time use VBCRLF. why does this above code with LEFT + vbCrLF doesn't work.
How To Track The Time Left In Database
When a student taking a quiz having a duration of 2 hrs, a timer will start and keep track the time.
So if he logout or close the window, the remaining time should be recorded into the database. And when he take the same quiz again, the timer will not restart but continue from the previous time.
E.g i take a quiz having a duration of 60mins, and when i logout the time duration remain is 30mins. And when i logon and take the quiz again, the timer countdown from there 30mins but not begining of 60mins.

HOWTO: Detect Outgoing Email Has Left Queue Folder
I can send email using C# and SMTP, but keep closing the connection before
the .eml file has left the Queue folder. The length of time the .eml file
stays in the Queue folder is dependent on the size of that file; big or many
attachments increases the time.
If I start an internet connection, issue the smtp mail send and then close
the connection in my C# program, I need to wait until the .eml file has left
the Queue folder. Otherwise, prematurely closing the internet connection
causing IIS to abort the send.
How can I detect that the .eml file has left the Queue folder?
LEFT JOIN On A Date Field And A Numerical Field - Using WHERE Clause
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

Function In The InStr Function
I want to use the instr function, but return results from it depending on surtain functions, I can't realy explain so I'll show my example:
I have a string in wich some word I want to find might be in diffrent Capital Letters order, I want the Instr function to return all the values of the place of that word (avcourse I'll run a for and increase the starting point of the Instr func until it returns 0). The instinct thought is to use the Lcase or the Ucase functions, but in this case I don't know how to use them. In the same Idea I wanted to use the Instr Func with the trim Func, But Its realy the same principle if I just understood how to do so.

View Replies View RelatedSub Or Function
I know the basic difference between a subroutine and a function is a
subroutine performs a task and a function performs a task and returns a
value. The Call keyword is required when using parens with subs with more
than 1 parameters. Parens around values passed are ByVal vs ByRef and is a
waste of processing if passed ByRef for no reason.
I am told there is no reason to ever use a subroutine as a function can be
used even if it doesn't return a value. While this appears to be true, is
there any reason why it's ever a bad idea to use a function, instead of a
subroutine, that doesn't return a value? Are there memory, performance,
etc. issues?
ASP Function
I am trying to locate information on how to call a sub within VBScript on an
ASP page but I can't locate generic information. What I want to do is
generate a page that will stay up but the information on it will change
based on a series of drop down boxes. I need the first drop down box to call
a second dropped down box based on the state that is chosen then city and so
on.
