Using ASP/VB I need to remove unwanted commas from the end of a field
that will be use in an array. There are items in the field that are
comma separated, so I don't want to remove them, just the end ones,
could be anywhere up to 5 unwanted commas.
Any ideas?

View Replies View RelatedIn PHP I'd use the following line:
$parsedfilename = substr($parsedfilename, -4);
But I can't find the same way to do it in vbscript using ASP!
I simply want to strip the last four characters, but leave the rest of the string in tact! As the string could be any length, I don't know a start position.
Surely it's simple and I'm missing something?
I have this bit of code that stores the current web page address in a Session variable. I want to always remove the last four characters, such as E.asp, or G.asp, or I.asp.
I searched tutorials on string manipulation but all seem to take out a string in the middle of a string and replace it with something. I just want the last 4 characters removed.
what I would like to do is remove a substring from a full string and display the modified string my basic code should be some like this:
strSearchString = FullString
strSearchFor = "SubString"
If InStr(1, strSearchString, strSearchFor) > 0 then
Response.write (FullString - Substring)
does anyone have any idea how I would go about doing this?
I'm dynamically building an SQL string to do an execute, and keep ending up with a leftover comma, so the string looks like this.
INSERT INTO Software ( Title, Version, Licensing, Total_Licenses, support_phone, support_email, Campuses_Licensed, Comments, support_web, FundingSource, Course_title, Subject, Grade_level, LocalExpert, ACTIVE, CATE, EntryDate,) VALUES ( 'Bob's Super Crappy Software', '4.3', 'labpack', '36', '555', '555', 'Alexander, Bilhartz, Central, Fairmeadows, Hyman, Daniel', 'James is testing this', 'www.bob.com', 'Campus PO', 'Math', 'Math', '4, 5, 6', 'Patrick Williams', '1', '0',)
Both commas are added dynamically and can be trimmed on the fly. I tried using RTRIM(strSQL, ",") but this didn't work.I put the fields into an array and tried to add only commas to all but the last entry, but that also didn't work.
How is the best way to handle commas in data in CSV files? I'm currently using the following:
set fso = createobject("scripting.filesystemobject")
set act = fso.opentextfile(server.mappath("filename.csv"))
itext = act.readall
arrlist = split(itext,chr(10))
and then looping through the rows and splitting at commas. However, some of the data has commas in it, which is throwing things off.
4 months into the land of ASP and I still have newb questions.I have a simple string.
centertype = Type1 & Type2 & Type3 & Type4 & Type5
How do I add a comma to seperate this string? Keep in mind that some of the values may be blank.
i.e. Type1 = ""
or Type4 = ""
I need to create a string along the lines of "23,43,78,23" with no comma at the beginning or end of it. The data comes out of a table so i've created a loop to get the data and form the string :
StrRecip = "," & objRS("number") & StrRecip
This will give me something like : ",42,78,67,2,90"
And then I've removed the leading comma :
StrRecipRem = replace(StrRecip, ",", "", 1, 1)
Is there actually a better way ?
I don't know if anyone has encountered this before. I've written ASP code to insert, update and delete records from Access and SQL Server tables before but this is the first time I face this issue -
I have a form that inserts data into an Access table. For a few of the fields, commas are getting inserted into the table. If the field is left blank, there is a comma inserted. If we enter data in the field, the comma is appended to the field value (eg: smith, )
The only thing different that i'm doing here from what I've done before is I'm inserting a larger number of fields into the table - 117 fields!!
Do you think the insert statement hasn't been written correctly?
I have a price field in a cms,it can deal with full stops fine, but i cant understand why it wont accept commas.
View Replies View RelatedI would like to know if you can display only certain data into a field between commas or any other symbol without using the curshort feature. For example. I have the following.
Part, A3472, Desc: Controller: Price$ 45.00
I just need this out of it in a single form field.
A3472
I cannot use the cutshort feature because my part numbers are different lengths.

When I enter "inverted commas" into a text field on a form and save to my Access database, after save the text field appears to be blank but when I look in the database it appears as entered. The problem is when the text field calls the field it doesn't show if the text is encased in inverted commas.
For instance, in my form field 'title' I enter: Big Title "Yeah" After saving the form, all that appears within the form field 'title' is: Big Title Yet the access database itself shows: Big Title "Yeah"

The main idea goes like this: I have a textarea, on the right I have a listbox whose elements are loaded from an Oracle Database, I want to have an "Add" Button which when pushed will insert in the textarea the value selected on the listbox between "{ }" (ej, The {white} cat), you can add as many values as you wish and also manually edit the text, and a Submit button which open another ASP page that will check the sintax of the textarea and insert it on the Database.
