I am maintaining some code and I see in some functions..
Function myFunction
set someobj = Server.CreateObject("MYOBJ")
.....
....
set myFunction = "somedataToReturn"
set someobj = nothing
End Function
I realise that all database and recordset objects must be closed and set to nothing, but I also use other objects but I can not find any mention anywhere whether it is important to somehow close and set these objects to nothing. The objects I am reffering to are the aspupload object (www.aspupload.com), the command object and the parameter object that you can create using a command object...

Method 1:
Code:
Sub myFunction(byRef x)
x = x + 1 ' do something with x
End Sub
x = 7
myFunction(x)
response.write x ' shows 8
Method 2:
Code:
Function myFunction(x)
myFunction = x + 1 ' do something with x
End Function
x = 7
response.write myFunction(x) ' shows 8

View Replies View RelatedI have a function displaySiteMemberName(varSiteMember) that pulls the name of a member from the database. I also have a function displayThreadComments(threadID) which displays a little text and then the members name.
However, I can't get it to display on the same line. I'm assuming that its a problem using the response.write but I don't know how to return a value from a function. Code:
I've looked around the net and searched this message board and haven't been able to find a solution to this problem. An application that I am currently making pushes and pulls data from SQL. One stored procedure is very important and returns many values.
I call this sp many times in my script and wanted to put it in easy to manage function, sub, or whatever works. The problem is that it returns about 10 values that I would need to return from the function back to the standard asp. Code:
I am using both VBScript and JavaScript functions in the same ASP file. All I need to do is to retrieve some values which are calculated in the VBScript function, to JavaScript. The call to the VBScript function is made through a JavaScript function. Code:

today i got an error from my site
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_DBC failed
it got error when i tried to update.then i checked all my files which has database stuff.i did not see any close statement for recordset & connection.we used DSN for connection.this site was build my someother firm.when i asked to my boss he told me they kept connection open purposely becoz they had uesd connection pooling.they said using connection pooling can utilize less memory resource.should i close each & every open recordset & connection
I realize that sometimes you can use recordsets that were never opened (like when you're adding a record to a db) and I realize that you cannot close a recordset such as this.
But for the ones that ARE open, should they be closed first and then set to nothing?
Also,I'm trying to create code that checks if a recordset is open. If so, I wnat to close it. How would I do that?
In my code I am opening a new window through javascript which opens upon submitting a form. The form collects certain information from user ; and this information is used to create a file.This file is created after the page is submitted and just after the file is created I want to destroy the window and then give a link on the page to download the file.
Is there any way to do this. The problem I faced was upon submitting the page I loose the window object that is returned by window.open method.
for readability purposes,I plan to standardize all my asp pages to always open connection at the beginning of the page and close the connection at the end of the page
If in the middle of the page I issued redirection,does this mean the connection will not be closed?
I have a page on a server (not under my control) that can't have scheduled tasks running on it and I need to hit the page once a day. I am currently doing this through a .bat file on our server which runs iexplore.exe and hits the page. Is there anyway I can get this window to close? either though the .asp page or in the .bat file.
This is becoming more of a problem as there is the likelyhood that within a month or so, I may have more pages requiring this same operation and it isn't very good to have to log on to the server each morning just to close these windows.
I have in the back of my mind and knowing the importance of using close(rsname) to close a recordset once it has been finished with, is whether any recordsets have been left open accidentally.
Is there, therefore, a way of listing all open recordsets, without specifiying the name of the recordset? ie. "For each key in recordset". Do recordsets get closed after a period of non-use?

If I use response.redirect, is the entire page read before the page is redirected?
For example, assume I have this code where the response.redirect is located before the objConn.Close line:
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConn.Open "sampleDSN"
response.redirect("default.asp")
objConn.Close
Set objConn = nothing
Will the page redirect before the database is closed?

I tried this code below and there is a problem in the code which is not closing the word instances in the server you can see that from Task Manager
STEP 1:
Code in test.asp.
<%
Set word = Server.CreateObject("Word.Application")
word.Documents.Add
word.Documents.Open(Server.MapPath("test.html"))
word.Documents(1).Close
word.Quit
Set word = Nothing
%>
STEP2:
Create a test.html in the same folder.
Execute the code in the server
http://localhost/test/test.asp
Is creating the 2 files WINWORD.EXE instances in TASK Manage every time we browser the test.asp page. This is creating the load on the server and making our application DOWN. I am a coldfusion developer working on ASP.
I have an ASP page that runs for at least 2 mins. What the user sees is a progress bar as the page is completing execution of scripts so they know that something is being processed.
The ASP page can be quite CPU intensive and I've found that if the user decides to close the page the CPU usage does not appear to drop back to its normal levels whereas on sucessful completion of the page the CUP usage does drop to normal levels.
Now I know that after a while the CPU usage does drop to its normal levels, however, I'm weary that this could be a long time if there are simultaneous access to the same page.
My question is, is there a way of controlling this via scripts? ie. can I force the webserver(iis) to timeout the script sooner or is there a way i can kill the instruction been sent...
