An ASP page outputs data from the query
"Select ThisAndThat from comments WHERE pageURL='" & pageURL & "' ORDER BY
threadID, datesent"
(Access mdb)
threadID is a string (OK, I know!), which means that 103 displays before 99.
Is there a way to write the SQL query to order them numerically? This would
be much easier for me than changing the data type and hunting down every
page that INSERTS or UPDATES the db.
This is a follow up to a question I asked two weeks ago which I thought was solved but on further inspection I realised it wasn't working fully. I have an ORDER BY on my search results page, the search uses two dropdown menus, the first one is start character (A-Z), and the other is grade.
The problem I have is that the ORDER BY work perfectly when I leave the start character dropdown blank, and when I use the grade selection dropdown, but when I select a start character I get this error message:
I am extremely confused about how i should go about doing this: I have puled out current orders and have displayed in a table .These orders have their own order numbers.
Once the person clicks on first order,the order is displayed in a form,where the user can edit the order details and hit submit.
Now when he hits submit ,I want his to go the previous page where the orders are displayed in table ,so that he can click on the next order and process it/OR may be whent he user hits submit ,i want the next order directly to be displayed in the form.
I have a table in my database with several numbers.(2, 5, 8, 0, 9, 0).Now i retrieve the numbers to my page using "order by numbers", and my page look like this.
0 0 2 5 8 9
I want the lowest number to be first, but if the number is 0 (zero) I want it to go to the bottom.Can that be done
I have one table wich has a unique ID feild for each record and other feilds, and another table that has one field that is a number that contains the an ID from the other table and another field that contains some text.
I want to open with sql the first table, but order its records alphabetically by the text in the second table. is it possible? Code:
When I have the recordset in the order as follows, all works well: (Recordset2.Fields.Item("ProductName").Value) (Recordset2.Fields.Item("ShortDescription").Value) (Recordset2.Fields.Item("Thumbnail").Value)
Though if I have the Thumbnail first the description does'nt show.
I've got a site with PayPal and Google Checkout payment options. The checkout page formats two HTML forms, containing bespoke cart code - one posts to PayPal, the other to Google Checkout.When an order is placed, it needs to be updated back on my site, so that the order is marked as 'paid' in the database. When this is done with PayPal, I just provide a hidden field in the form called 'invoice' containing my id number for that transaction. This is returned in my IPN, and I update the database accordingly. However, I can't find a similar field in Google. Their example code all seems to be in XML and is WAAAAAAAAY more complicated than I need it to be. I just need to send a value with my cart code to Google Checkout, and have that value returned after the transaction has completed. I've set up Google Callback, and the page is being called and the order is being written to my google log txt file, I just need this to contain my order id number for the transaction so I can just add the logic to update the database based on this id number.
I've written the following piece of code which is embedded in HTML. For some reason when the script is processed the last response.write statment is displayed before the information in the while loop. I can't seem to figure out why this is happenming.
I'm working on a list of members.In my db I have two columns lastName and marriedName lastName is the member name before they got married and legLastName is their lastname after they got married.

I want this result: Anderson Johnson (look for Andersson) Johnson(look for Lindgren) Nilsson Persson(look for Nilsson) Petersson Svensson(look for Petersson)
I am processing the variables from a form submission with a for/next loop. The problem is that the order of the variables are NOT written IN ORDER.
Form field 1 prints fine but then it jumps to Form field 9 and then back to Form field 4 then to Form field 2, etc. IS there a way to process the form variables in a loop in ORDER? field 1, field 2, field 3, etc? Code:
And one clicks on the form, and a SQL statement is executed. However, when I create the SQL statement,
INSERT INTO table1 (FormId,AdvantageId,SortOrder) VALUES (<call from form ID>,<advantages>,<advantsort>)
Then it loops to allow the next phrase to be entered. The statement also takes the value from every other sort order value including that ones that are in different lines. Which in result, gives me an error, saying the insert columns exceed that of the available columns in the table.
how to display search results on my web site in an order that I specify. at the moment there ordered by the primary key which means there all over the place.I know what the code is but I'm not sure how to use it, can anyone give me a quick lesson, does the code need to be on the search page or the results page?
I have a small webadministration system that allow the users to create new menu items in the website´s menu.But when new record is inserted the new menu item allways comes first in the menu (becouse I sort it that way).How can I allow the users to change the menu item order like "home - about - contact".

The error im getting is:
Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14) [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in FROM clause. /index.asp, line 104
I've tried adding a ; on the end of DESC but still no luck.
I have an .asp page where I ORDER BY catagory. The catagory column has only three possible values; ICO, Negotiator, Product. I built the page using ORDER BY catagory. So, the order the list would be in is: ICO, Negotiator, Product. The owner wants the grouping to be: Negotiatory, ICO, then Product. How do I do an ORDER BY when it's neither ascending nor descending?
Everytime I try to pull a query and order it by the price of something, 1123 comes before 300.
It just makes no sense, all that I can think of is that it is ordering by the first digit of the number. Is there anyway to sort it the right way having 300 come before 1123 when you want to sort it in lowest to highest numbers? Code:
<% Set rsTest = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") rsTest.Open " Select * from special WHERE CURDATE() <= dat AND line='me' ORDER BY price asc limit 0,1",conn if NOT rsTest.EOF then do while NOT rsTest.EOF %>
