View Replies View Relatedi need help formating todays date minus one.
i can get this 1212006 but i need 12012006
It shows the data but not like in the data table (Access). I would like that the numbers have a 2 digit decimal behind the comma i.e.123.456,30 and negative numbers should be in red and in brackets i.e. (123.456,30) So, the format should be:
$#.##0,00;($#.##0,00)[Red] as I have done it in the table - but not in ASP
Where do I have to enter the format in the ASP code? - or - Where do I have to enter the format in the Html code? Is someone able to write me the coding line?

I use <textarea> input more than one paragraph to the database, whose field
type is set to "text". Then I retrieve it to display in <textarea>, which is
OK, paragraph by paragraph, but not in the other tabs because of no <P> or
<br> between each paragraph.
Is there any solution to display in other tabs
than <textarea> paragraph by paragraph. Or do I have to change the database
field type other than text? And which type is good in this case. Thanks for
any idea.

View Replies View RelatedI am trying to write some code that inserts or updates a text field in my SQL Server 2000 database. The SQL statement is created using a submit from a form, and the text is coming from a <textarea>, and therefore being placed into the SQL statement via a Request("field"). However, due to limitations in SQL Server 2000 and text fields, I can not use a simple Update or Insert command with text over 8000 bytes.
Does anybody have any sample statements that will help me update that field with larger amounts of data? I have tried using the WRITETEXT function and UPDATETEXT function with little or no success.
