Import From External Source
My company recently hired a third party to handle phone orders during off hours. The third party wants to be able to update our database through their own interface. We are running SQL Server 2000 on Windows 2000 Server with ASP.NET 1.1. The number one thing that come to mind is security for credit cards. Perhaps some kind of web service, xml, etc.? Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to handle this?

I have scoured the web for everything related to CSV imports in ASP. I have everything working, but one issue remains.
My web application accepts a file upload of a Tab Delimited text file, parses through it to create a Comma Delimited file, creates that file on the server, and then goes to the CSV import page.
The CSV import page accesses the Comma Delimited file through ODBC text driver, and I generate SQL insert statements from each record. The problem is, one field is a "room number" field which generally contains numbers, but several entries also contain letters, an entry might be "A121" or "AUD" or "254", etc.
I'm guessing that ASP or the ODBC text driver "guesses" the datatype of the field, because whenever it hits a record with letters in the "room number" field, it uses the last numeric value for that field from any previous record. If there are multiple records with letters in this field, it will continually show the most recent numeric entry from that field, even if it was 5 or 10 records ago!
I am accessing these values using recordset("fieldname"), and all other fields display correctly, except recordset("roomnumber") when there are letters and numbers in the entry.
I've opened the CSV directly on the server and the fields are all fine, in the "room numbers" field, the entries which are all numbers are right-aligned, while entries with numbers and letters are left-aligned, but I assume that's just the way Excel displays them.
I am aware that adding quotation marks around this field would solve the problem, but there is no way I can have the data format changed. I might try to add quotations while creating the CSV file on the server, but this is such a strange problem that I'd like to figure it out anyways.

I still have problem to import the text file delimited by tabs or commas into the database.
I refer to http://www.connectionstrings.com/ for the connection, ODBC doesn't work and OLD DB works only for csv files. Any idea? Does anybody has workable samples?
Standard:
"Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt;
*.csv)};Dbq=c: xtFilesFolder;Extensions=asc,csv, tab,txt;"
OLE DB
Standard:
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c: xtFilesFolder;Extended
Properties=""text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited"""

I have a problem with including an object in my asp page. I�ve translated an algoritm I found that was written in javascript and it needs a method, floor(), from System.Math to work.
in javascript you can just write Math.floor(x+1) but it seems asp doesn�t automatically include that Math object. It�s a little weird since the method Round() can be used withour any includes of any kind and thats a part of the Math object!
So... How do I do to access this floor() method?
I tried to write:
<%Imports System.Math %>
but it doesn�t seem to do the trick.

I have created a user lists from a database (UserProfiles.mdb) using asp. There is the possibility to click on the different usernames in the list to go to a page with more information about the user:
the link to this page is: <a href="test_bis.asp?userid=<%=userid(j)%>"><%=un(j)%>">
when you click, it works, e.g. http://localhost/Test/DataQuality/U...s.asp?userid=15
My problem is that I need the variable userid to create the new page. I made a test to see if this variable was "imported" in the new page and thus with: Response.Write userid, but I do obtain a blank!! Code:

My Goal I want to load from a CSV File into variables so I can use the values in a procedure I've developed. But I'm stuck on how to access values from a csv file. If everything were to be in a Database everything would be just easier but sometimes you don't have the options of having a database.
Now what I'm wanting to do is load the output into asp variables so i can use them in a procedure I've created. Code:

I have searched a lot at GOOGLE, but i can't found the way to import data from a form textarea into database. Actually my web page would like to allow the user to export their phone book from excel file or outlook phone book, then import into my database.
I was thinking to provide a textarea for the user to COPY and PASTE their address book from the text file and then my web page will read line by line to store the data into the database.
Example data:
abc, abc@hotmail.com, 999999999
bcd, bcd@hotmail.com, 888888888
i can't find any solution that can read line by line, because normally when the we parse the data from the form textarea. All the text will become string that without the <br>.

Basically, I want to have an asp page that has a button where when you click on it, it opens up a file open dialog box where you can search for any excel file you want to import. Then, once a file is selected, I want to read all the contents of the excel file (from column A) to display into a listbox on the screen (so that each individual row from excel file would be a separate item in the listbox). Also, this data would have to be inserted accordingly into an access database .....

'This is where we create the random number
