I am trying to write a script that generate random code which are not in database.
Things are ok on these points:
1. Generating a random code
2. Controlling whether it is in database.
For now, if the code is in database, it gives a message.
What I want the funstion do is to generate a code which is not in db?
How can id do this?
I write the code as reference.....

i have a problem with devoloping an asp program ,that is dynamically generating snapshot files (in .snp format)from
a MS-access database.
database name is datafile.mdb.
Report name is "reportTarge".
here is the asp code for this.
<%
Dim objAccess
Set objAccess = Server.CreateObject("Access.Application")
objAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase "D:Databasedatafile.mdb"
objAccess.DoCmd.OutputTo 3, "reportTarget", "Snapshot Format (*.snp)", "snapshotname.snp"
objAccess.DoCmd.Quit 2
%>
But while executing this asp code ,i am getting the following error in my IE browser.
Error Type:
Server object, ASP 0178 (0x80070005)
The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions. Access is denied to this object.
What is the reason of this error (while creating instance of the access)?. Is there any problem with my IIS server setting ?If there, how to solve it?
I set up a random code for people registering with my site.....
letters="1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
for i=1 to 16
Randomize()
rNum=Int(Rnd()*36)+1
code=code&mid(letters,rNum,1)
next
but for some reason it sometimes saves code as an empty string. When I register a fake name, ie zzz, it seems to work fine, but for some of my members is saves as an empty string.
Here's what i need:
[vbs]
"SELECT * FROM Articles WHERE Category = 'Reviews' and SubCat = {RANDOM CATEGORY} LIMIT 5;"
[/vbs]
Now, I think the last post on the thread I read said the guy could make an Array and just pick a random item out of that...and that makes sense in my case, listing all the Categories and then picking a random one.But, I don't know how to do it! I don't have much experience in arrays

I'm trying to create a portion of script that would select x (variable) number of random records from a table.
in PHP, I could do this pretty simply with a line like, "select * from table order by rand() limit x", but the solutions I've seen so far for asp and access involve things like 40 lines of code, selecting the entire contents of a database, creating temporary tables, etc.
Is there any quick and dirty way of doing this?

View Replies View Relatedill have a database with 1 table and 3 fields:
ID FIRSTNAME LASTNAME
(the ID field will be the auto incrementing index)
there might be 10 records in the DB, there might be 10,000. i need to open the DB and randomly select a record (and then display the name, which i dont have a problem with)
how can i randomly select a record? im guessing id have to open a recordset and check the count to get the number of records, so lets say there were 100 records. i imagine i would have to generate a random number between 1 and 100....
obviously in standard asp. and i'm not even sure where to begin. I currently have it set up for a random quote every time a user refreshes the site. This was no problem. Any help or if you can point me in the right direction.

We have some ASP code in a database, say something like
Code:
<%=session("strFirstName")%>
If we ever call that, instead of resolving to the value of the session variable "strFirstName", it shows the whole line of text "<%=session("strFirstName")%>".
The question is, how can we get code like that in the database to generate on the page along with the rest of the ASP code
However, what I want to do is include a request.querystring("ID"), so that IF an ID is defined, eg ID=3, , it will display the relevant (not random) information. I've tried this every way I can think and get type mismatches, etc etc. It's probably really simple but I can't see it.

I just wanted to know whats the best way to generate 50 or say X amount of number at random without having to repeat any of the previous number...
so far I've the following:

<%
function RandomNumber()
dim theRandom
Randomize
'RandomNumber = Int((upperbound - lowerbound + 1) * Rnd + lowerbound)
theRandom= Int((99 - (0) + 1) * Rnd + (0))
if (theRandom<10) then theRandom = "0" & theRandom
RandomNumber = theRandom
end function

We have the need to have a random token (a 16 char alphanumeric field) to be used as the key for one of our SQL tables. I have created a random token generator, however after only 3 months in production, it appears that we had an instance where a token that already existed in the tables was created. There are 3810 records currently in the database so it isn't like there are billions of records there.
I contacted an old college buddy of mine who is a mathematician, and he claims, assuming that random really does mean random, that the chances of getting a duplicate token are 1 in 79.5 septillion (79,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
So my conclusion is that this was either a complete freak of nature occurance, or my random generator isn't really all that random. Here is the code behind how I am generating this: Code:
Does anybody have code to add a "Database Last Updated...." line on your webpages that are generated from an MDB? There is simple ASP and javascript for 'page last updated', but the code that I have found just detects the time when the page was generated, which is every time the page loads since it is querying the database.
Im looking for code that queries when the database was last updated, then displays that info on the page.
Basically i have one table and i want to search it by what the user types in the search bar/text box.
