I have a routine I'm writing to read the contents of a file and modify it. However the file will not parse properly into an array, so I strongly suspect I'm using the wrong character to parse the file. The line of code that is supposed to parse the file is:
arrLines = Split(sFileContent, vbCRLF)
When I view the array, it appears as one continuous line, but when I open the file in a file editor it's very clear there are 15 lines.
I've got a league standings file that gets uploaded as an xls file. To display the contents, I'm not sure what the most efficient way is:
1.) Import the xls file into a database every time the file is updated
2.) Read the contents of the xls file using OpenDataSource or OpenRow Set
3.) Something I haven't thought of yet!
I've to got a login script, but in the middle of the verification script, I'd like once the vify has been ok'd to look for a sql file, that has insertion data in it, once the file has been found the asp code must read and carry out the sql command (insert the data in the access db), once done the sql file gets deleted.

Consider the following code snippet:
<%
Dim objFSO,objOpenFile,strPath
strPath=Server.MapPath("ADList1.txt")
Set objFSO=Server.CreateObject("SCRIPTING.FILESYSTEMOBJECT")
Set objOpenFile=objFSO.OpenTextFile(strPath,1)
Do While Not objOpenFile.AtEndOfStream
Response.Write(objOpenFile.ReadLine() & "<br>")
Loop
objOpenFile.Close
Set objOpenFile=Nothing
Set objFSO=Nothing
%>
When I try to execute the above code, the code never gets executed. Neither
am I shown a script timeout error. After a lot of investigations, I
concluded that the code is not getting executed due to the presence of
Set objOpenFile=objFSO.OpenTextFile(strPath,1)
If I comment line nos. 3 to 8, then the code gets executed but as expected
without any output. Is this happening because of some permission which has
not been given to IIS 5.0? If so, what is it? I am working on Windows 2000
Professional.
I would like to know how I could accomplish this without using DB. There's a long text file named "TEST.TXT" The TEST file contains special character 'º' which will be used as pagebreak. I want an ASP page that will read the TEST.TXT file and split it into multiple web pages with navigation control. (eg. <FIRST<PREVIOUS>
<NEXT<LAST)
If it is possible

View Replies View RelatedI have a form that updates a text file. This text file writes variables (i.e. username = tom). This file is used to preview an HTML page and when you go to the form the variables are populated into the form fields again.
For some reason when someone else modifies the text file (using the form) I only see the old contents in the form fields. When I look at the preview HTML file, however, everything is fine.Why doesn't the form re-populate with the new info?

I need to create something that will read a text file and send e-mail statements from that text file. I know this is a basic application, but I am not sure where to start with this. The text file already contains all of the information for the statements. It is one file that starts with the customer e-mail address and then separates each statement by an <eob> marker. I need to be able to browse to upload the file and then have the application cycle through and generate all of the e-mails. I don't need to do any formatting to the text file, just read it and send the e-mails. The server currently uses CDOSYS to send other e-mails from a shopping cart application.

I wanted to write a simple page to let me choose a directory and then list
the files in it. The end goal was to make an easy way to copy all the
file names in a directory. I tested with Opera7, Mozilla 1.4 and IE6 -- all
on windows XP Pro
Here is the code. In all three, when I select a file, the complete path
is displayed in the file input box. In Opera, reading the form field gives
me the same full path. But in IE and Moz I get only the filename -- none of
the path information. Code:

I am building a link exchagne for a medical web site. To get categories for the link exchange, I Googled "medical categories" and came up with a very, very good list of medical categories. they were seperated by a <br> tag. I went through the code and extracted all but the following (see below).
What I want to do is somehow create a list of "options" for this categories in a select dropdown, with the category being the value for the option AND displayed in the dropdown. You know what I mean. I would think it would involve reading in a text file and inserting the necessary code. Code:
Here is what I have setup:
- a form that updates a text file.
- for example, in the form I have two fields, title and story. then, this write to a textfile (i.e. theinfo.asp). the update.asp file looks like this:
TSO.write "<%" & vbCrLf
TSO.write "title = """
TSO.write Request.Form("title")
TSO.write """" & vbCrLf
TSO.write "story = """
TSO.write Request.Form("story")
TSO.write """" & vbCrLf
- so, essentially it is creating an asp file with two variables.
- this works fine, it updates the file and i can call these variables in other pages. however, when i call these variables into a form : old versions of the variables populate the form: Code:
i had a vbscript that will read the text file from the bottom to the top, and after reading the file, it will be displayed in the screen, and the code look like this:
