I've searched these forums but no joy - am sure this is a newbie error but I'm still tearing my hair out. Receiving this message :
Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0409'
Unterminated string constant
The ASP code is :
how do i put something like this
response.write "hello world!"
into a string
for eg strtext =" response.write ""hello world!"" "
now i have tried single quotes and double and both give the error
Unterminated string constant
reason i want this is so that i can write this line to a text file
or better yet "<%response.write "hello world!"%>"
into a file and then save it as an asp page, and then open that page from my browser.
I write following code for call java script funtion through hyperlink column of datagrid

its working fine but if any record have space like "G 59" it gives error
unterminated string constant.
i have no idea what this error is referring to. I thought it was a missing quotation set but I'm not sure where it should go

I have an ASP page in which I reference quite a few ADO constants such as adOpenStatic, adLockReadOnly and they work fine but a reference to adUseServer comes up as undefined?
I have a typelib definition in that page:
<!--METADATA TYPE="typelib" uuid="00000205-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4" -->
For the time being I used the constant 2 to replace that reference - I hope
that is correct?
Any ideas on why that constant remains undefined?
I have a table (MSSQL 2000 server) with a column called "Content" whose datatype is text. Now I'm trying to insert data into the table using a stored procedure. What is the ADO constant that I should use to insert value into that column? Code:
View Replies View RelatedI need to create an ASP page that automatically queries my database once every hour on the hour. So, what I was hoping to do was just create an ASP page that constantly loops and never actually turns itself off. Within this code, it could check the current time and if it's the top of the hour again, my database gets queried however I have a feeling that my web host probably won't permit this.
So I was just wondering if this would work or if not, is there a work around? Worse case senario is I could create a visual basic application that sits on my desktop and just works off of there but I would prefer to develop this in a web based language such as ASP or .NET if possible.
Why am i getting the above error

Please note, MM_Prod_DSN is defined on a single line.
I have a quick question regarding a text field for inserting record, I have a page which inserts various fields including area code an phone number for a new record, however I am curious if there is a way that I can either make the area code appear with brackets around it in the text field which is sent so that the user does not have to type it in each time.
I was thinking I could concantenate the value i send in each time with brackets but am not sure what the syntax would b for this. or perhaps there is another way of doing this?

I'm developing an Asp.NET system to take a CSV file uploaded via the web, parse it, and insert the values into an SQL database. My sticking point comes when I try to split() the string returned by readline() on the file.
The following code snippet works for me:
tokens = "one,two,three,four".Split(",")
for each token in tokens
response.write("<td>"+token+"</td>")
next
However, if I take the next line in the CSV, read using StreamReader.ReadLine on the PostedFile.InputStream, I receive "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." which I have narrowed down to be my string holding the line. Further investigation reveals that no other string member functions work on my line (.ToCharArray, .ToString, etc).
I suspect that StreamReader.ReadLine is not correctly returning a string, even though Response.Write(line) displays what I would expect .....
I have a form in which several elements are expected to be all digits. Some of those elements can be left empty, but if specified they must be all digits. I have this Sub to edit them: ....
View Replies View RelatedI am pulling info from a sql server By default the query pulls back the inforamtion as text.Therefore when I go to calculate some figures its giving me a type mismatch error.
Is there a function in can call to convert a text string to an integer string using
rstSearch.Fields("name").Value .To pull back the info in a for loop
Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A000D)
Type mismatch
If a visitor doesn't put anything in the "Search" text box I'd like them to

search.asp to do this.
I am trying to search my access database for a string using LIKE and a wildcard.
Example:
Code:
Dim con
con = "SELECT names.* WHERE name LIKE 'sam*'"
For some reason this gives me no results even though I verified there is entries with the word sam in them.
Also tried using % instead of *. Also took out wildcard. I can search for an integer without a problem though, when I try a string, regardless if there's relevant entries I get nothing back at all.
I am using an SQL statment with a LIKE clause. I am trying to print the actual SQL statement on the screen. However I cannot print a '%' character on the screen. I tried using Chr code and just % outright.
Random variables:
name, rank
Code:
sSQL = "SELECT * from myTable WHERE myField LIKE '" & name & "%'"
It just prints on the screen: (assume name=joe)
"SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE myField LIKE 'joe'"
i have an object which is a string, (objrs4("points")) how do i convert it into int numbers.

converting string to hex like so:
for x = 1 to len(source)
target = target & hex(ascw(mid(source,x,1)))
next
How to convert it back to a string?
I got as far as:
for x = 1 to len(source) step 2
target = target & chr("&H" & mid(source,x,2))
next
but this fails with the pound sign (£ - £)
This seems like it should be so simple. I would like to create a conditional statement based on the length of a string. The string is a memo field from an Access database. I would like to handle long memos differently from short ones. I'm starting out just by trying to write out the length of the string:
memo = RS("Idea_Note")
Response.Write Len(memo)
I can response.write the memo without trouble, but I get nothing for the length of the memo.
I have a drop down list of ssn and text box to input ssn to view the info in the next page. I am having a problem with displaying and when I debugged the code, I am getting a comma next to the ssn. Here is my code the dropdown and input type:ssn is text field. Code:

<Select name=ssn >
<%response.write("<option value=""" & RS("ssn") & """>" & RS("ssn") & "</option>" & vbcrlf)%></td>
<td><input type=text name=ssn value="">

In next page when I response.write ssn, I am getting the ssn as: 123456789, why am I getting a comma next to the ssn?

View Replies View RelatedI need to create some .asp pages to publish data from our manufacturing lines...but I can't figure out how to establish the connection string and print the data. I've been stuck on this all day and about to start pulling my hair out!!!
As an example, can someone create the most basic code necessary to build a web page that does the following:
a) connect to a SQL version of the Northwind db (assume I have a functioning ODBC connection called 'Northwind_ODBC' on a server called 'ProductionServer')
b) Loop through the records in the [Shippers] table and paste the values in a HTML table (using SELECT * FROM SHIPPERS)
I know it sounds simple but I'm looking through some books and can't find a solution that works on my server.
NOTE: I'm running Server 2003 (with IIS), SQL Server 2000, and I have proven ASP does work on this machine...unfortunately, just not with the code I'm trying to build!!!
