Searching A Database Using The Name Of Person
I want to search my database using a person's name. My names are separated into 'First' and 'Last' name fields.
The SQL I'm using so far works if you search only by the first name, or only by the surname, but if you enter both names, it comes back with no results.
How do you do it so that it will work in all cases?
Here's my code:
Sql = "SELECT * FROM kbs, authors WHERE authors.authorID = kbs.author"
If Request.Form("TypeSearch") = "author" Then
Sql = Sql & " AND (authors.authorLastName LIKE '%" & Request.Form("kbsSearch") & "%' OR authors.authorFirstName LIKE '%" & Request.Form("kbsSearch") & "%')"
End If
set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
set rs=conn.execute(Sql)

I did a quick search on this (insert ironic comment) but cannot find anything appropriate. What I have is a site running out of an access database, holding roughly 150+ pages in the same format, i.e. a page header, content text, and the date it was published.
What I want to do is to have a search form where a user can insert keywords, and the search script then queries the database and pulls out links to the pages (or database entries, obviously) that match the query. I've tried another script but this only searches for .htm or .html files within the directory my site is housed in. Is there a tutorial/direction anyone can point me to in order to achieve this?

I want to search 2 of my database fields (title and description) for search terms entered in a form. I can do a 'LIKE' but how do I cover searching for each word in the string that has been submitted? For example, if someone searches for 'World Cup Final', I want to search both database fields for 'world', 'cup' and 'final'.

How can ASP be used to search through a database that has multiple tables in it? I want to be able to enter a string into a field in an ASP page and the resultant tables to be listed in a table or list on an asp page. It might be the same page or another. I know it can be done - but I can't link the concepts or code together.

i want to perform search operations using ASP.
this is a word search i.e. every word entered as search keyword
should be searched in the database...
since it is a word search, i tried to split the string entered as search keyword,
and then search for each splitted word in the database.
It worked for only a few records present in the database. some 1034 records were searched out of 1914 i tried the same procedure in PHP and that worked.

In this query i'm searching two fields for any occurance of Dennis Smith whom i know is in the database however no results are returned. Also if i just search one field and the search string has a space in it, no results are returned.

I'm trying to design a simple website with 2 dynamic searching functions. The first is the user enters text into a search box, clicks on the search button and then connects to a sql or access database and brings back those records that are LIKE the search phrase. It's my intention to then have a detailsview link on the searches so the user can drill through.I'm designing an online version of my catalog so that the user can browse by page. I also want the user to enter a page number and then click go and that would then take the user to the corresponding page in the catalog. I'm guessing I'll need to declare If 1 then open page1.html, if 2 then open page2.html.
I know I'm close but not close enough and my knowledge has been well and truly stretched and I must have read and read my Dummies book about 20 times over the last week.

I have a single column that outputs a comma seperated list of values (black, white, red)
I created an arrary to output the values
Dim colorTypes, arrTypes
arrTypes = split(objRS("types"), " ")
riceTypes = REPLACE(objRS("Types"), ", ", "<Li>")
response.Write "<Li>" & colorTypes
This works fine. Now, I need to compare a queryString to arrTypes and bold the match before outputting it.

Just wondering the best way of doing this? are there any dictionary databases laying around somewhere?
I want to change my search so that it corrects typo's and maybe suggests better words to search with... like googles but with more alternative words to make the search more useful - slightly limited so it doesn't become pages and pages of search terms.
What I don't want to do is sit down in front of my computer and type all of this in, going through related words and possible other searches / best searches from the given input.

A client uploads a document (a msword .doc file) to the server,
I need to search a string that document and find specific words in it
(this is an Application to a School, most of them look the same, so all you can do is replace the school name in the application, but sometimes people forget to do so and get rejected for sending inappropriate application).
So I need to find in each Application possible names of other schools and alert about it.
I'm writing in ASP (I can use ASP.net as well)
I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO THE SERVER (it belongs to the hosting company, and there's no way of installing anything there)

I have a simple intranet for the company I work for and I am attempting to create a phone listing and search tool for it. The list has a simple 500 record access db.
Presently I have a page which displays the entire db. What I'd like to do is have a form at the top of the page that lists the entire db where a person could type in any word... Name, office location etc and have the result ported out on a new page with only items matching the search criteria. Code:

I have a database which has a field called "title". I have made a text input box and set that user submitted text to a variable (call it textvar). How do I say something like this...?
Set rs = conn.execute("Select * from workitem where title contains '" &textvar& "' " )
Of course the word contains is just a guess on my part.. other ideas are "is like". What function/syntax will give me what I want, which is for it to return any title that has the words entered by the user?

Has anyone had dealings with setting up website postcode searches such as one that would let a visitor input their postcode and specify a 'within the range of' value such as 20 miles and then be returned a result.
I have an asp page that allows visitors to input their postcode into a field which then refers to an Access tbl and displays the results, but only if there is an exact or LIKE match within the db.
I want to offer the facility of letting them increase the radius if they are unable to find a result matching the exact postcode. Code:

We have a need to search through an entire drive for a specific file name. The process is currently written with recursive loops through each directory and the Scripting.FileSystemObject.
Problem is, it takes forever. When I do a standard file search through Windows Explorer, it typically finds the file I'm looking for within 5 seconds. Is there another approach to file searching, or am I stuck with trying to make this recursive loop somehow more efficient?

I have created a page which receives a query string from an SMS text message. The query string 'Body' could look something like this:
123456703061977C123456789sub901sub123sell901buy903 budget
what i need to do is split it up. I know the first 7 numbers are needed, in this case '1234567'
Second i need the following 8 digits:
03061977
WIth the rest of the text i need to scan and see if certain keywords are in there. This case i need to see if C is in there, and if it is then i need to identify the 9 digits after that letter. If sub is in there, then i need to find out the following 3 numbers, and if sell is in there i need to grab the following 3 numbers, plus what 3 numbers follow the corresponding sell.
