I have built an online booking system for a hotel and all is working fine except for the fact that the ‘From’ and ‘To’ dates are saved in the MS Access database in US format. The user selects from a date picker pop, which places the in the textfield as English format e.g. 02/12/2007.
However when I try and save this value into the date column in my DB I obviously receive an error because the formats are different. Please could someone advise me on the best way to convert an English date to a US in order to insert this into the DB using ASP & MS Access.
At the moment I am using plain text as the column type, but this is not ideal as I want to start to run queries against the 2 dates.
I am trying to compare a variable with a db plain text field as follows: access db has field named HFRNUM as text .... ex: 12182003-A
I create a variable in vb as follows: Dim hfr_today HFR_Today = (Month(DATE)) & (DAY(DATE)) & (YEAR(DATE)) & "-A"
Unfortuantely, I think the HFR_Today var is not text and when I look for a record that is LIKE or = the var, it returns blank.
I display my variable and see 12182003-A, yet it does not find the record that matches (except data type perhaps?) Is my variable of a different data type, and if so, how can I make it plain text?
Can anyone please tell me is there any method to convert the week to the date?? For example If the week is 6 then we can get the date where the date is between '2/1/2004' and '2/7/2004'
I've got an ASP script connected to a db table with a datetime field which is filled mannually for each record. When I want to select only those records with a date greater than todays date using this sql query:
Select * from fixtures where home_team_code = '" & idno & "' or away_team_code = '" & idno & "' and game_date > '" & today & "' order by game_date asc
it returns all records rather than only records with a date in the future. Is this something to do with the fact that i'm comparing a string to a datetime?? Can I use a VBScript function to make the string comparable to datetime?

What I need to do is get the content of a text file, one line at a time, and break it up using , as a delimiter.

I have a section where users can add their 'favourite venues' to a list. This is stored in a column in the users table, for example:
10,8,1,18,26
On the user area I can do a select drop-down with all their favourite venues easy.
When I try to use the same (slightly modified) code on the venue detail page to determine whether the user has the venue in their favourite to link either to ADD venue (not currently a fave) or REMOVE venue (already on the faves list) it only recognises the last added venue, i.e. (working on the list above) venue #26.
