Trimming Commas

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.

Trimming Db Results

i don't know what to do here exactly.
i have seen the TRIM function, but i'm not sure if it's the right way to do it.
i have a recordset called RSUSEREDIT.
in the recordset there is a column called "EMail".
i can print out the results using Code:

<%=RSUSEREDIT("Email")%>

the email column always uses the same domain name... - username@domain.com
is it possible to remove the part after and including the "@"?

CSV Commas In Data

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.

Trimming Words

I have a database field that is a memo type. I would like to be able to only display the first 50 words from the database. I would like for it to show ..... after about 50 words.

I am using <%=Content %>. How do I trim this field to show only 50 words and then ....?

I tried the following code:
Function LengthTrim(input, length)
If Len(input) > length Then
Return Left(input, length) + "..."
Else
Return input
End If
End Function

then <%= LengthTrim(Content, 50) %>

But it would not work. I got the following error message:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'Variable is undefined: 'Return' .

Trimming Filename

I am storing URL in a database for a 'sort of' directory type website.The <a href> is built from the recordset of URL's which is all working no problem, easy stuff.What I have found is going to be necessary in some cases is to trim the URL back to just it's www.abc.co.uk address for the link display.

I still want the actual link to go to it's long 'deep linking' location, but there is limited room for displaying a URL that could be a hundred chars long.

Trimming The Field

I have a section on my website that lets users to input their own username and password in order to enter the restricted area, but i notice that some of the users likes to use strange characters to use as their username or password.

how could I trim those strange characters ie. like the follow !@#$%^&*()'{}/?~ out of the input field, WITHOUT using the javascript because javascript can be disabled from the browser and by only using the ASP IF ELSEIF statements to do so?

Trimming Whitespace

I have an Access db of products which I'd like to use for creating dynamic urls. Each product has a range name which I intend to use to point to the folder containing the relevant image eg pine/001.jpg

My problem is one of the ranges has two names ie Indian Accessories. I can't have a url with a space in it so how can I dynamically alter the field so that it displays the url as either indianaccessories or indian-accessories?

Replace :: Commas

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 ?

Trimming A Variable.

I need to trim a variable to have everything after 4 chars in a string.

IE:

var_temp = 200:16:1234567890

i want everything after 200: to be a variable.

I cannot use:

var_new = right(var_temp,14)

because the string is a different length everytime.
I just dont know this function.

Commas Getting Inserted Into Database

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?

Display Data Between Commas

I 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.

I just need this out of it in a single form field.

Inverted Commas Hides Data

how to avoid an error when calling data to a text form field that contains inverted commas? 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"
