Populating Drop Down Menu
I am having some problems populating a drop down menu called province with data.
This is the error I am receving:
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cc1'
Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal.
/fairmont/order.asp, line 85
I am sure there is data in the DB. I have attached the file.

Can someone point to an example where dynamic drop-downs are populated? I would like to execute a sql statment and populate the items in dropdownbox1. I would also like to retrieve all possible values for dropdownbox2 and use Javascript to build an array that holds these values.
Then, I would like to scroll thru the array to select the correct values for dropdownbox2 based in the selection made in dropdownbox1. At last I would like to save the selected values for dropdownbox1 and dropdownbox2 to the database. I would appreciate very much if someone can give me code examples for each of the things listed above.

I'm orking on an online Catalogue, users are to select from a dropdown menu the finish they wish there goods in. The way I was thinking of doing this is have the finishes availiable stored in a column in the database - lets say 'finish' and the column would contain the finishes seperated by commas.. like red,blue,green,yellow etc, so the pull down menu would need to dynamically populate with these values.. is there an easy way of doing this, or am I going about it the wrong way?

I am trying to populate a drop down so that it shows the current date, plus the previous 6 days. Here is some pseudocode. I can't get it to work from here.
<SELECT name=Date>
<%
Dim d
d = Date()
for i=1 to 7
%>
<option><%=d-i%></option>
<% end for %>
</SELECT>

I have a recordset full of a list of courses.I want to create a search page, where the user can select the course from a drop down box, hit go and be taken to a page on that course. But some courses have 3 versions of that course, so for example I have 3 IT courses. so in the list it says
IT
IT
IT
How can I limit this to just display the value once in the drop down?

im looking at populating a drop down box with database values when a user selects a value from another drop down box.I have a drop down list that populates from database values, it is a list of manufactures. When a user selects a manufacture i want it to display all the systems for that manufacture which will be stored in a table. I understand that because asp is server side that once an option is selected the page would have to submit and then load the values in.

I'm trying to pass information using POST. The first screen the user selects a company, and that variable is passed to the second page. On the second page, I am trying to populate a drop down list of usernames, but only those usernames that have the same company as the one selected on the prior page.
For some reason, the drop down list does not fill up with any names, and the rest of the form comes up blank(i.e. password, login, reset). Are there any glaring errors in this code? Code:

I was wondering if someone could help me with finding out how to populate a drop-down box with values queried from a database.
Also, I was also wondering if someone could help me with figuring out a way to place field-values retrieved from a table into a text field. This would be for the purpose of editing a record that has previously been entered.
Placing the information in a texbox field so that the user can easily type over it seems like the best thing to do.

I am trying with very little success to populate two drop down boxes in the same form when i do i get an error saying page cannot be displayed.
They do not need to be linked to each other in any way but they get the data from the same table I am new to ASP so this might be pretty easy to resolve.

I am working on a small application for senior users, so I want to limit the option for incorrect input whatsoever. I have a drop down box that is populated from a query and I want to make it so that when an option is selected, the pertinent text fields are populated based on the selection.
All the info I need is already being extracted from the query so its just a matter of displaying the right info based on the selection. I have been looking for examples of code but they all seem to use javascript. I am not too strong in javascript so I kinda avoided those. if there is a pure asp example, that would be fine!

Anyone know how to create a drop down menu where the user can enter text

If they do not want to choose an answer from the drop down menu, the

I have a form that I would like to create. My primary concern is 2 drop-down menus. The contents of the second drop down menu depend on the selection of the first drop-down menu.
For example: In the first drop-down menu, I want to select a department, and after a department is selected, I want to be able to select one of that department's employees from the second drop-down menu. Of course the content of the employee menu will depend on which department was selected.
I've been experimenting a little bit with my Access database, but how I design that really depends on suggestions I get here, so let me know what you think.
EDIT: I should also mention that the contents need to be read from the Access database, rather than storing everything in a javascript array. In this way, I can have Human Resources add new departments and employees via a web form so that I don't have to manually edit code every day.

I have an access database called contact.mdb and I have linked to it just fine and used the records held in it to populate a datagrid and can update and delete records.
I don't understand databases that much but I would like to read the values into a drop down menu which are held in the field 'ID' from a table called 'courses'. I have a feeling it is something to do with data sets but am not too hot on these either.

Below is an extract from a form that i am writing. I need the user to be able to have a drop down menu of languages. How do I use the 'option value' command in ASP like you can do in HTML; so there is a list of languages for one to be selected. If someone could amend my code to give me a couple of language options so I can get an idea of how it is down.
<tr id="r_Lang">
<td class="ewTableHeader"><span>Language<span class='ewmsg'> *</span></span></td>
<td class="ewTableAltRow"><span id="cb_x_Lang">
<input type="text" name="x_Lang" id="x_Lang" size="30" maxlength="25" value="<%= Server.HTMLEncode(x_Lang&"") %>">
</span></td>
</tr>

I am creating a "search by category" page using a drop down menu. I am very new at SQL/ASP and am having trouble with the correct syntax for sorting my search results.
Each category in drop down has an id ("catid"). Results need to show all Company names that fall under that specific category in alphabetical order. I have already completed a directory that is sorted alphabetically and tried to "borrow" some of that code:
