i dont know asp at all, but i have been asked to backup a database that is used on a site which uses .aspx. i dont need to do anything with it, just copy it and send it along to someone who will. I have the IP, username, password.
i have allready got all the files off the site with ftp, is the database in there? i dont really even know what i'm looking for, but i dont see any .mdb or .sql right off the bat.
Does anyone know how to backup a database at given time intervals? I thought one way of doing it would be just an SQL statement that backs up everything to an identical database.
Presumably though for this SQL to run it would have to be called from an ASP page. What happens if no one calls that page for a month? How would i get it to back itself up anyway?
Something else that i want to do was for people to be able to access a sample web application and have a mess around with it.
However to be sure that when person B came along 1 hour after person A tried it out, the sample application wasn't full of explitives etc i want to be able to automatically revert back to the "default" data after the session times out or a set period. Any Ideas?
I am trying to create a backup of my new SQL database from Enterprise Manager, directly onto my local machine for the first time, without using a backup device, . I keep encountering the following error:
'The error is 229: execute permission is denied on object ‘xp_availablemedia’, database ‘master’ , owner ‘dbo’'
I am logged on as 'database owner'. I just don't understand what i am doing wrong. After logging a call with the host, they have sent me a link to the following instructions, which i am already doing.
I have just started using ASP, I am normaly using PHP but I thought ASP might be a good road to go down. I am having a few problems, I am trying to limit the number of records I take out the database but I keep getting errors.

I had made a form name 'dform.html' which asks idno, name and phone from the user and after the user clicks on button "save data" sdata.asp is executed. sdata.asp is written to save the values entered for idno,name and phone in dform.html into table "myfriends" in the mydata.mdb (access database). but when i am clicking on save data button i am getting error saying
"Error Type:

can please anyone tell me why i am getting this error.
I work with ASP for several weeks now and i really like it! But until now i have just used it in connection with my localhost. I made connections to a SQL Database and to an ACESS Database with using the ODBC Tool from WIndows!!
Now i want to publish my website but i don't know how to handle the connection string kind of thing. My MySQL-Database is on a different server than the website and i need a connection string where i can type in the server, a password and a username and it should then connect.
I'm current working on a project which need to upload local data to
live server database.
Meanings that, i'm current having a server in my local mechine. I need
upload data from local database to live database which host at oversea
company. But i really have no idea how to do this in asp.

View Replies View RelatedProducts ---> Products|Customer <--Customer
With regardst the above many-to-many relationship:
Is there any advantage in creating seperate access databases for:
- Customer
- Products
....Rather than keeping them as three tables in one database.
The reason I ask is that I have found that if I am using a ftp approach to
overwriting or updating the remote database there are sometimes problems
with synchronizing data .....This seems to be a better solution?
Am I off base?

View Replies View RelatedI have a Access DB with two tables (Users and tblpersons). Users are stored in table Users and their records in tblpersons. They are able to login, Enter, Search, Update their data.
I want users to be able to Enter and update only their data not other users data.
Example:User_Id 1 when logged in, is able to enter data for any user(1,2,3......) and able to modify their data.
I can make a simple database file and name it database.mdb, all I need to do is name a single field email and save it. But I dont know how to make it so that my page will become active and the emails submitted will be saved either to the mdb file or a text file, im not sure what goes on there.
i have 2 tables and i only want the records where which arent in the one database eg.
table 1
idnum
1
2
3
4
table two
idnum
1
2
3
4
5
6
out of these two tables i only want from table two idnum 5 and 6 cause they arnt in the 1st table.
They are on Windows 2000 IIS 5.0 and currently have an older version
of their job database using Access hosted on a Brinkster server.
The new server that they are on, when I contacted the host, they advised me
against creating any new applications using Access, as the server is not meant
for multi-users.
So, I am thinking that they need to get their host to upgrade to a SQL database
and have the job database developed using that.
My question to this forum is: What do you think is the best combination for
improvement here, SQL or MySQL or what, considering that their site is using asp
and hosted on Win2000 IIS 5.0?
Also, any recommendations on scripts that might be already available that could
be customised to their site?
What we have is our own (in house) Windows 2000 Server which runs MS SQL for our data storage and we have writen our own VB6.0 Application which runs of the SQL DB to manange our stock, ordering, price's etc etc. Also we have our own Website with a Web Hosting Company which is also a Windows 2000 Server but can only Run access databases.
What we what to do is somehow have the Access database and the SQL database sync together to have some of the same data in both database's. But I don't know where to start.
I have the following code to execute a SQL query.Code:
SQL = "INSERT INTO teams (`teama`, `teamb`, `pot`, `winner`, `finished`, `start`) VALUES ('" & teama & "', '" & teamb & "', 0, '', False, '" & gdate & "')"
teamrs.Open SQL, conn
all works fine.
I just want to know what result it gives.because once i add it, the form submits, and its a blank page. I want it so it does this Code:
if sql = worked
redirect
else
error
end if
so how can i make sure the query was executed successfully.
This is probably a stupid question (I'm good at those)...
I would like to enable a user to be able to browse to a picture on their local machine and upload that picture to a remote directory where it can then be displayed along with it's other pertinent data.
I thought it might be a good idea to use Front Page's "file upload" feature which includes a "browse" button and prompts me for a storing location - but I can't get it to work and am not even sure if that's its intended purpose.
So my question is two-part, what should my insert or update page look like regarding an upload process, and then how would I link to or display that picture?
I have some questions in a database, i showed in the web page, for each questions i gave 3 (Yes, No, Not Applicable) options via select - option. when i get the variable with select name, it is showing with comma.
Example :
If they select for like that
Ist question - Yes
IInd question - No
IIIrd question - Yes
IVth question - Not applicable
The variable is coming like (Yes, No, Yes, Not applicable)
but i want to get with separate variables.
What is the best database to connect to, and why?

View Replies View Relatedi have this code that is supposed to help me out in some databse retrieval issue. however i am not aware of the dsn-less code and stuff:

var n=0;

i think the following is also to be included in the above code, but i am not sure of the whole connection thing.

View Replies View RelatedI made a database in MS Access and two ASP pages, one with a drop-down box with some options in it and the other one which then shows more data from the database about the chosen option. All of this worked perfectly on my pc but when I uploaded all of this to the server all I get on my website is an empty drop-down box. It seems that my page can't read the data from the database. I'm sure that the path to the database is correct. What could be the reason?
View Replies View RelatedI have copied a MS SQL database to my local machine and am testing it with ASP pages, locally, on IIS. I have a db connect page that keeps the current connections for the live database.My question is, as the local db is named 'local,' is there another name I need to give it and thus call from the connection page?Also, when copying a db, are the permissions (username and pass) copied over with it?
View Replies View RelatedI have an xml dataset.I have an html table that data is bound to and where rows of data are "selectable" with a click. I know how to get to the record in the xm dataset that I want. What I can't seem to figure out is how to move the selected row in the table on the screen so that it highlights the record I want.
Once I get that working in a regular table, I need to get it working in a paged table - that is, move to the correct "page" of data and then highlight the correct record.
Code:
sql = "INSERT INTO sample (id) VALUES ('" & id & "')"
sql = "INSERT INTO sample (first_name) VALUES ('" & first_name & "')"
sql = "INSERT INTO sample (last_name) VALUES ('" & last_name & "')"
sql = "INSERT INTO sample (sales) VALUES ('" & sales & "')"
This inserts the numerical fields(id and sales) but not the text fields(first_name and last_name)
