I'm trying to add a search facility to a page that looks for matches in one,
other or both memo fields of a database. The code below works fine if the
visitor types in one word, or the term just happens to exist in one of the
queried fields.
What I'd really like is for a visitor to type in an expression, or query in
the same format as you would use in a search engine and it would find
appropriate matches. Any ideas how I can modify the code below to do this?
I trying to search a text file using a boolean AND search. What i want to happen is when a user types in type values to search e.g. Name Department (Taylor marketing) i want it to only read out the lines which contain both values.
At present it reads out all lines with Taylor in and all lines with marketing. The code i have so far is: Code:
I've written some code that creates an sql statement in a string to update a boolean value in an access database, however, I dont know what value to give the field to update the boolean value in the access database.
I'll paste some of the code so it makes more sense.....
(note: the 'Booked' Field is the Boolean)
strSql = strSql & " UPDATE HolliesBookTbl SET Booked = '-1' WHERE "
'loop through the checkboxes which were ticked
for i = 0 to ubound(arrVals)
if i = 0 then
strSql = strSql & " DateID = '"& arrVals(i) &"'"
else
'only add the " AND " if this is not the first value
strSql = strSql & " AND DateID = '"& arrVals(i) &"'"
end if
I've been pullinhg my hair out over this
I have a boolean field in an access database. I want to write an SQL statement which pulls out all records from the table MemberInfo where the field Online = true.
This is my code
sql = "Select * From MemberInfo Where online=true"
This doesn't work, do I need quotes around true?
if a declare a variale say
Dim Flag
and assing it to true a boolean value
Flag = True
and if i try to concatinate it with another string like
mystr="<my-str>" & Flag & "</my-str>"
and if the machine is non english the mystr will contain something like
<my-str>that language characters</my-str>
what should i do to get True in mystr what ever the Language of windows is.

I have been trying to run the example listed on MSDN to test a regular
expression. I'm running a win2k3 web server edition, WSH is version5.6.
I am getting an error everytime I run
Set RegEx = New RegExp
I have seen a few problems on MSDN with users not getting the right
permissions for some dll's so I went through the procedures trying to
correct that. I've seen the RegExp values in the registry. Even had a
friend of mine try the script on his machine. (mind you this comes
directly from MS) I cannot get New RegExp to work at all
I've got a page of text which I am assigning to a string. Within this
page there are special tags e.g. lots of text....<ti>dogs</ti>..lots
more text....<ti>this is a cat</ti> etc.. So I've got a long string
interspersed with these tags. Now what I need to do is get a list of
the words/phrases that are within these tags. So in my list I would
get dogs, this is a cat etc..
I've tried a combination of mid, instr and replace and got it sort of
working but there's got to be a more efficient way of doing it.
Possibly using regular expressions?
Can I use regexps in fso.DeleteFile? I've found I can use a '?' and probably a '*' (although that seems a tad brutal) but I'm having trouble with expressions like ([a-z]|[0-9]-).
Am I wasting my time trying to get it to work (i.e. does it support them?) If so, how do I use them? Does it have its own quirky syntax or "standard" regexp? Every example I've found so far just mentions deleting something simple like *.txt.
For the record, I need to "tidy up" a directory full of images by deleting files whose names _don't_ contain particular text. It's quite convoluted and would be far easier if I could just go through each file one by one but hey. Here are the details:
1) I have a list of IDs in an array that I've read from a data source. This is the "current ID" list
2) I have a list of image filenames from a directory in another array. The image filenames contain an ID in them. There could be none, one or more images containing the same ID.
3) I look at each file in turn, extract the ID portion and add it to an array of "found" IDs - crucially, this array is only updated if the ID has not been seen before in another filename
4) I then step through this array and use Filter() to see if the ID is in the "current ID" list somewhere
5) If it is missing from the list, that ID is deemed "out of date" and all associated images containing that ID need to be deleted. Message to screen saying that ID has been deleted.
6) If it is in the list, just print a message saying it is "current" and move on.
I realise I could just step through each file and test it against the current ID list but then the output on-screen would be file-by-file and not ID-by-ID. The client doesn't care how many files there are; they don't even care about the underlying structure - they just point the browser to my script and it deletes the files, shows them which IDs have been removed and tells them how many IDs in total have been deleted.
If I went down that route I would have to keep a record of which IDs I've deleted and output the lot at the end instead of 1 by 1 as I go, which leaves the browser hanging for a while and doesn't give the client reassuring feedback as it ploughs through the directory adding the results to the screen row by row. Code:
Problem: I want to check the data from a RecordSet.GetString result for today's date. If today's date exists in the row then I want to replace the preceeding <tr> tag with a <tr style='background:grey'>. I made the following objRegExp.Pattern:
.Pattern= "<tr><td><font size='1'>[w]*</font></td><td><font size='1'>[w]*</font></td><td><font size='1'>" & FormatDateTime(now(),vbShortDate)
This successfully identifies the row as containing today's date. Yea! Now, the replace part.
text = objRegExp.Replace(text,"<tr style='background:grey'><td><font size='1'></font></td><td><font size='1'></font></td><td><font size='1'>" & FormatDateTime(now(),vbShortDate))
This piece works except I lose the data that was actually contained in each cell. How can I have it so that the only thing that gets replaced is the table row tag?

Now, I'll obviously want to do more than write "error" to the screen with the validated input. What I *really* want ideas on is a more efficient way to validate the fields. In this small example doing them as one-offs isn't bad. On a form that has 20-30 fields it becomes cumbersome.

Intranet tech support system using ASP/VBScript running on W2000 Server,
IIS, and using SQL Server 2000. I need to add a search engine. The problem
with using a regular SQL query is that if you put a phrase, say "red car" in
the text box, to hit submit, my SQL qurey would only look for that phrase,
and would leave out other items where the words red and car appeared
separately. I guess what I am saying is that I would like something like
Google or other search engines, which would find results which seem to fit
the criteria typed into the box, and rank them and highlight key words.
