Search Directory For Last Modified File
Is it possible to search a specific directory for the most recent file and list when it was modified.
View RepliesIs it possible to search a specific directory for the most recent file and list when it was modified.
View RepliesI am trying to access the date last modified of file. The problem that i am facing is that i need to make this file dynamic.This file will be the footer of any file and it needs to display the date modified of the file it is a footer of.i need to read the name of the file and then diaplay its modified date.
Following is the code I am using.....
I'd like to know how to display the date a webpage (or more specifically, a file) was last modified.is there a way to read off data Windows stores for each file (there's a create date and a last modified date) and response.write-ing it to a webpage?
basically it all boils down to me being to lazy to manually update the "this webpage last modified: (date)" status
I'm trying to deploy a service using an asp page, for this service I need to find a file in a directory using a path made for some values taken from some variables, this values change depending the user selection on the page. I dont know how to do this.
View Replies View RelatedI have a very simple project to complete. How do I search a directory for all the files saved in that directory by specific date. I want them to enter the date and the asp page will search a predefived directory for all the files matching the date entered and then display a list of thoe files with hyperlinks to open them.
they will be excel files. I can already search by file name, display the .xls file as hyperlink. now I just need to pull up all the files in the directory by date.
point me to some example code of searching for a file, like *.*, or *.pdf, much like the Windows search function. I am at a smaller location, away from the main office, and although I can map a drive or just use to go to the desired location, the connection is too slow to search.
I'd like to implement a search function on the intranet web (at the main office), where it will search a certain directory and its subdirectories and return the results as network links (using the convention); actually it doesn't matter how it displays the links, as long as it shows me where stuff is. That way the search is run on the computer where the originating directories are.
I am creating a text file on the server which once created I need to then copy to another directory on the network.
View Replies View RelatedI'm coding a page where you can download a lot of different files( 100-1000) but I don't want to code each file(linking and all) it would take weeks to do that. I tried with a database and asp code rding the databse but it not saving a lot of time since I got to complete the databse.
I wanna know if we can code with asp something to automaticly read each file and list them in html so I dont have to code 1000 x the samee thing.
I want to know is it possible to upload file into specific directory?
Actually I already find how to upload a file, but I can not choose/browse where I want to store/save the file.
I am working on a book selling website using ASP with an Access DB.
Basically i would like to have an image of each book in the DB to be displayed upon request in the website. So I guess what i would really like to know is
1. Can i store .jpg or .gif files in an Access DB?
2. Does it make sense to do this?
3. Would it be better to have some kind of pointer in the DB to a place in the file system where the image is stored? .......
does any one here know of a good way to to determine whether or not a
given path is a directory (e.g., "c:mydir") or a file (e.g., "c:mydir
myfile.txt")?
i started attacking this problem by using filesystemobject to check
whether or not a directory existed for the path. if so, it was a
directory path. if not, i checked to see if a file existed for it. if
so, it was a file path. Code:
Currently I am developping a internet "directory browser"
My page 'default.asp' has following entries:
CurrentPATH = Request("MyLink")
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(CurrentPATH)
Set oFolderContents = oFolder.Files
this works fine with 'default.asp?MyPath', where "MyPath" stands for i.e.
c: emp
but NOT with 'default.asp?MyFile', where MyFile stands for i.e.
c: empfile.txt
Is there a way to determine if the link contains a file or a path? Of course
you can check for a dot (after dot, normaly it is an extension, thus a
file), but I want to have it possible also to have dots in my directories...
Anybody?
If I don't set a vritual directory for the new application on the IIS (simpley copy the new application to a parent virtual directory), the new application's Global.asa file won't work. Right?
View Replies View RelatedI have a folder with eight or ten files that can be displayed in a browser. I need to display the file with the latest creation date. I imagine there is some kind of ASP function that could like at the filename's date and pick the file that meets the criteria. How can I do this?
View Replies View RelatedSet fileSystem = Server.CreateObject( "Scripting.FileSystemObject" )
Set file = fileSystem.OpenTextFile( "config.xml", 1, False )
It's saying that 'config.xml' doesn't exist. How can I reference this file? It's in the same directory as the file with the above code. Do I need to build the path somehow?
I used to have a little ASP file (classical ASP) that would show me the total file size used per directory. I didn't need it for many years and now that I do I seem to have lost it.
Does anyone have an classical ASP file/script that will loop through your filesystem and shows the total Mb's used per directory? I could write it myself I'm sure, but if someone has a script like this ready it would save me quite some time.
is there a way in asp that you can prepend a file to the beginning of page you access in a directory? i'm not talking about the include statement because you have to put it in on everypage manually. i know you can do this in cold fusion, but i don't know how to do it in asp or if its even possible.
View Replies View RelatedUsing ASP in a VBScript environment, how can I check the protection on a directory, or a
particular file?
This question has to do with MS file search but it is happening only with
..asp pages, so I though someone programming with .asp pages has experienced
the same situation.
I'm trying to find .asp pages with a certain table name (i.e.
"renewalInfo" )
When I ran the search I get no results. I know that I have that string in a
couple of pages. My file system search engine is working fine with other
file types, like Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, etc.
I tried typing the string outside the <% %> tags and when I do the search I
get the file results, so it seems like if the search engine in my file
system was not searching inside the <%%> tags. Code:
I'm trying to run each file in a directory to be put into an include file line
I can't get anything to work me. Code:
The Include file '../main.asp' cannot contain '..' to indicate the parent
directory.
I think it is refering to the fact that I have a file called
communication.asp, and in that file there is a line:
<!-- #include file=../main.asp -->
This LINE should not contain '..' to indicate the parent directory
On the other hand, reading the message as it is written, we see that it
says: Code:
When ever the user modifies a file the date will automatically update to that particular date. I'm using a last.modified script and my output is this:
This page was updated on December-NaN-NaN
The date format is all wrong. It's suppose to read August-16-2005.
This is the script: Code:
I have a form mail script that sends an email and then writes to a text file using Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").
The problem I am having is that the information needs to be saved in a Password Protected Directory. When I try to save the info it gives me a permission denied error.
I had my hosting company change the permission on the directory and the script was working ok but now it isn't.
Is there a way to pass the username and password in the script so I don't have to worry about the hosting company messing this up?
I have 2 web servers both running win server 2003 with iis 6.0. On my
PROD server I have a virtual directory called CONV. It points to a
folder on the C drive of this PROD server.
On my TEST server, I defined a virtual directory called CONV. It points
to a share called prodservernameCONV. Note that the share name is
the same name as that of the virtual directory.
Using IIS on the TEST server, I can navigate to this CONV virtual
directory and via right mouse, click EXPLORE. I see all the content I
should but when I try to doubleclick on a file I get a message saying
"Security alert" - "your current security settings do not allow you to
perform system commands on this item".
I've tried everything I can think of on the security settings for the
physical folder on the PROD server. I extended EVERYONE from READ, etc.
to FULL CONTROL. I added the user called INTERACTIVE and gave it full
control. In short, I am stumped and guessing now.
Basically, I just want to avoid duplicating all the data files on my
PROD server over to my TEST server.
Can I implement session without global.asa file in my root directory....and is there any good site for sessions tutorial.

I'm writing a page to update a database based on a form. I'd rather not update every single field, but only those that have been modified. Does anybody have any good ideas on doing this? It seems as though it might be slower if I go through each field, even the unchanged ones.
I am working on website that is based on records. However, I no longer want date certification completed; I would like to have date modified, date completed and date last updated.
View Replies View RelatedI am displaying a list of all the files a in folder on the server. I would also like to get the date of the file when it was saved or modified. here is myy code for displaying the files. Code:
<%
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set folderObject = fso.GetFolder(Server.MapPath("..announcements"))
Set filesObject = folderObject.Files
For Each file In filesObject
Response.write file.name
Next
Set fileObject = Nothing
Set folderObject = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
%>
I have created a record update process and I want to insert the current date/time into a field called modifieddate in my access table how would I go about this as all I get is datatype mismatch when I try it.
View Replies View RelatedTo update a cookie that already exists in the request, I'm calling Response.Cookies.Add(...) The debugger indicates that Response.Cookies then contains one object, as I expected.
When I enable pageOutput tracing, however, the Cookies Collection section shows the cookie name twice, apparently with the old and new values.
Why is it appearing twice? Does this section simply mix values from the Request and Response cookie collections, or do I need to delete it somewhere before adding it to Response.Cookies?
I want seperate my doc. from other type files so I renamed and modified the form It works untill the last part where it is supposed to write the files to the folder.
then I get this error.

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ea'
Syntax error

[/error]
now If I read that right this is what it is complaining about. <
I just do not know why.
Since it is a syntax error that means I wrote the command wrong right.
Is there a way where I can identify if the field sent was modified?
