I've got a csv file with names, addresses, emails, etc. I've been asked to randomly select a name from a csv file. I've found plenty of RandNum examples, but I'm not sure how to apply it to these names. Can anyone point out a sample I could use?

I want to select a random record from a table within my Access database, however I am running into problems. When the page is executed, it always shows the same record. Code:
Is this do-able with ASP / VBscript?
-- I have a database with user records (name, photo, etc. etc.)
I want to use asp to generate (on the homepage) a series of 4 randomly selected 'user records' from the database -- say just the headshot photo or name from the database.
In addition to the recordset being randomly generated (i.e. our of about 50 records, only records 4, 18, 23 and 26 are displayed) I need to MAKE SURE they are not duplicated (i.e. out of the 50 records, records 4, 18, 23 and 23 -- where the last two are duplicates).
Is there a way I can pull this off and how do I go about it exactly?
We down load a text batch every day from the site to the local computer so we can run it through the carriers program to create the labels for items. I want to speed this up as much as possible thus once the item is downloaded a user should open up a page and it should detect the newest file and then begin to edit this.
(Finds | and splits down by product so I can do type of posting and if 2 items need 1 label then don;t waste or if going royal mail instead put into another database!)
So basically - can I select newest file from folder as there is no easy pattern name wise. In terms of the name the batch number goes up once per day and so it xyz99.txt so I would need to find 99.txt etc...
i have a bit of a weird question . I'm looking for a pull statement that pulls the number of files in a specific folder , But at the same time it wouldn't pull the number of pictures in this folder either . I have no idea how to write this code and I'm wondering if anyone could help me out?

Challenge :
I get number of participants in an exam, from a sql statement and stored into a variable called headcount.
After that, I am using the following to initialize randomly generated variables. For example if there are 4 students in the class, I intend to get student1, student2, student3 and student4, all of them initialized to 0.
For j=1 To CLng(headcount)
Eval Execute("student" & j & "=" & 0)

I have <select muliple> in one of my update forms - ASP. This update form also handles a file upload (enctype="multipart/form-data"). The problem is I am not getting the mutiple values of the select option after submission. Only the value of the first option selected is retrieved. How can I fix this or modify the script to get all the values selected.

I have written some code which should dynamically build a table which is then populated with questionas and possible answers. The format of the answers will vary ie they may be in the form of a radio button which will be rated from 1-5, checkbox or a selectbox.

does anyone know what I have wrong with this select in my form?

I don't know if this is in the right section. I hope it is.I have an HTML document that uses tables and stuff. I also have a FORM on there with some input boxes, Radio buttons and <select> options.
I have a .asp VB file also that processes the actual form and writes the answered questions to a text file on the server (tab separated)
My problem:
The input boxes and radio buttons work fine. It writes to the text file on the sever end.
My problem is I am not too sure how to go making the answers from the <select> options to also write to the server. They way I have it set up right now, it jsut writes "NULL" on the text file.
I've recently come across using "Select Last" in an sql query. Does anyone have any info or views on using it? Until now I've relied on "Select Max" but Select Last would have distinct advantages when using random autonumbers. I'm also curious about why there is so little info on it - perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places?

I have these two tables in SQL. Both tables have the same two columns (Description and SiebelName). I want to some how write a script that will look for the descriptions that matches the ones in Table1 with the ones in Table2 and if there are any I would like to take the column in Table2, SName, and update the column in Table1, SiebelName, with that of Table2.
Here's what I attempted to do but it's not working:
--------------------------------
UPDATE tbl_MasterTEST
SET tbl_MasterTEST.SiebelName = Siebel.SName WHERE (SELECT tbl_MasterTEST.ProdDesc, tbl_MasterTEST.SiebelName, Siebel.SDesc, Siebel.SName
FROM tbl_MasterTEST, Siebel
WHERE tbl_MasterTEST.ProdDesc = Siebel.SDesc)

pa_surname = Client SurName
So i was wondering is there something i can do. Like a For each that will create alot of tect boxes for each field "with its value in it" and also make it write a description for the lable. Code:
