I have been working on a simple eLeave System. I would like to get more advice of my db design. Basically, I have 2 tables here: user and leave_application. I will just put the relevant field needed for leave calculation.
user: date_employment, type, t_annual_entitled, t_annual_actual_taken, t_annual_balance
leave_application: date_leave_from, date_leave_to
There are 2 values under type, E - Executive and NE - Non-Executive.
Example
- If type = E, t_annual = 22
- If date_employment = 7 July 2005, t_workingdays = 187
- So, my formula for t_annual_entitled = (22 * 187) / 365
So, is my db design and my formula okay for this system? Any other better ways?
I am currently developing a final year project which is a web based tracking system tracking exam questions. I am using IIS as the server, MS access for the database, and ASP with VBScript for the scripting side of things.
One of the things I want to do would be to e-mail a user/moderator whenever a exam question is edited/completed/updated. does anyone have any previous expierence in this? i don't even know where to start.
What is the asp code variable for System Date and System Time? Are they built-in system variables, or is there some code involved to return the values?
I've created a system DSN called 'accessDSN' for a MS Access DB. I get an error when running the following.

Error :

I want to stick with VB on this project. The only problem I have with this is that I might have a problem with printing. The POS system is designed on a small 10-15 computer networked system. They are all good systems so nonone say that it may be a little to intensive for the systems.
Now once the system runs through basic checks: change exchange, enough money to pay, and other smaller features then it has to print the invoice. Now we have a small Epson Thermol (prints like Lazer) printer. How would my VB application send that information to the printer?
Microsoft, in one of its "Help & Support" pages on ADO, says that a System DSN is three times faster than a File DSN. I find that a bit odd for the simple reason that won't it be faster for a script to access a file to get info about the database source than access the same info from the registry which will be the case if a System DSN is used instead of a File DSN?

I am currently working on a site that's hosted on IIS. I need to implement a user login system for multiple members. Basically I need to secure mulitple pages and each member would be directed to a different page once they log in.
For example:

Also, it would be good to be able to display error message below the form if the username or password is incorrect.

I am trying to create an online class booking system for a project, how can I sort out the classes so that when a user selects one it gives them the date of the next class, which would be the week afterfor example if I book a class for Thursday then I will be told that the next available class will be Thursday next week. Also if it was Thursday and I wanted to book a class on Monday then I would want it to book the next coming Monday.
The classes are changed every four months, therefore having to put these in a calendar would be extremely time consuming. Is there a calculation I can use in ASP to automate this on the basis of the above example?
What is the syntax for running say. a batch file (.bat) from within ASP?
For example... in MS Access you can say something like this... ---------------------------------------------------------- CurrentDBDir = "c:" ShellWait CurrentDBDir & "runthis.bat", vbNormalFocus ----------------------------------------------------------
This would run the "runthis.bat" file located in the c: directory. How would one accomplish this same thing in ASP?
I am trying to pull all of the rows out of a DB table called "Thread Topic", and display all of the data for the table column "ThreadTitle" on the ASP page. But when I pull the data and put it into a variable, it prints out this:

...I have a loop to display every record in the "ThreadTitle" column, so it prints this System._ComObject thing for every record I am trying to print.
Here is the portion of my code that this is dealing with...(keep in mind this is just a portion of the code, the relevant code only, variables that look like they are not declared are declated earlier in the page ...
