I've searched the net but I couldn't find any SQL code on how to insert an autonumber column into an access database and table. Can anyone include the code?
I'm creating a basic ASP guest book, keeping my guest book entries in a Microsoft Access database, and using ADO to access it. My problem is that I am using the autonumbered ID field to split my guestbook into pages of 10 entries. It works for the most part, but if I delete an entry, a gap is left in the records and I end up 9 entries instead of 10 on that page. Basically I need a better way of sorting this out - I thought of SELECTing all the records into an array first and then working from that, but I can't get array to be dynamic enough in VBscript
It just inserts a new record into the db. What we did was add an autonumber field to the db, but now it won't update.
We know why - because it needs a value for every category in the db - but we don't know how to code it so it will update the db correctly. So, if anyone could help me with the (????) line in the coding so it will correctly update, that would be perfect!
What is the best way of using an AutoNumber system on an SQL server?I've been used to using Microsoft DBs for my online apps and have now upgraded to using Microsoft SQL server.
I want to be able to insert a new record into the database not such a problem but I want each record to have a unique identity no eg. NewsID. I know that you can do a lookup of the MAX number on insertion but if two people are inserting at the same time this may cause problems with duplication.
I use (something like) following code to add new records to a database, but it doesn't work!!! I need to know the value of an AutoNumber-field when I add the record. Why doesn't it work and how can I make it work? I think it should be easy, but I can't figure it out! Code:
I have a page that does an insert into a table in an Access DB which has an autonumber primary key field. Following this insert I need to be able to get the ID that was generated. If I were using SQL Server I would simply return fetch @@IDENTITY from a stored procedure for example.
Does anyone here know of something similar I can use in Access to be able to get that ID? I tried just using a SELECT query with all the information I had just inserted but it comes up empty unless I put it in a separate request (i.e. redirect to a new page passing all the info through the querystring and then building the query on the redirect page...which is a huge pain and takes FOREVER to run.
I have a form that is filled out and put into an Access database. The id field is Autonumber.
What I would like to do is also insert this data (or some of it) either into another database or another table, but I would like the created AutoNumber to be a part of this data. Is there any way to get this number immediatly after insertion?
I'm trying to write the code for an autonumber to go in to a text field when the page is open. I had it working in access but of course it won't work in asp. The format has to be for example: PBC-1200.
I have an Access database that uses an autonumber for the primary key. I hv app. 110 items in the table, and yet when I add a new item, it autonumbers as 534097 or some ridiculously long number.
How can I get it to go back to a smaller number without removing/trashing existing ID fields?
I have a recordset with two three fields. One is an autonumber field called ID , one is a text field called Name and the last is a date/time field called DateEntered. How can I programatically determine the autonumber field ? Code:
OK, I realize this is a subject that almost every developer would encounter, so I understand the answer is probably out there somewhere. Suffice it to say that I have been looking, both in this forum and on google, found many SQL server answers, and one for Access, which I have tried with no success. See the following: Code:
sql = "INSERT into someTable(IntColumn) values (" & fakeValue & ") SELECT @@IDENTITY" set rs = conn.execute(sql) response.write "New ID was " & rs(0)
This results in a JET database error, Missing semicolon at end of SQL statement. I tried adding it after the close paren, after the select @@identity, and after both, with the same error.
I am using Ms Access database and I have set 3 digits (e.g. 000) for an autonumber field of my table.Its working fine in Access and incrementing automatically like this (001, 002, 003 ...), but when I call the data on a web page using ASP its displaying these numbers like this (1, 2, 3, 4 ...) I dont understand why is it not displaying the numbers as it is in the table.
Why won't this code work - the "id" fields are autonumbers
Code:
<select size="1" name="Agent" tabindex=""> <option value="Select">Select Owner</option> <% x = rs("id") Do While NOT rs2.eof y = rs2("id") Response.Write "<option value='" & rs2("id") & "'" If x = y Then Response.Write " Selected" End If Response.Write " >" & rs2("first") & " " & rs2("last") & "</option>" & vbCrlf rs2.MoveNext Loop %> </select>
I insert the question in the correct place which is related to the table 1 but when it come to insert the answer for that specific question id didn't work .. it always take the first question in the table Code:
I want to take the last record in my database and display it on my ASP program. From my understanding, when last record + 1, it will be autonumber right. It's like generaing the autonumber for invoice number.
For easier view, my last record is 21. So I want that 21 appear in my ASP system as 22. Is anyone can give me the idea how to make it?
I'm writing a database admin page in ASP. I had it adding records correctly. Then I added an autonumber field ("ID") to the table, and it stopped working. The sql I'm using is Code:
I updated to aspx last three month,after developing serveral applications,Idecided to downgraded to asp, following is my reasons: 1.in ASPX,the page format is hard to control,in ASP u can change every html as u like ,but in aspx, a aspx control decide the page format,and its hard to change the format.
2.ASPX is said to be faster that asp, but it is based on too-often communication back to the server,for example,u click a radio a button,there is new page request, but in reality,such a communication is bandwidth-consuming and time-consuming. the user only need to submit the form, and the exchange between IE and Server was minimazed. the Speed of ASPX is not useful for most sites, for bigger sites, the speed increase is singnificant,but for small sites with less traffic, the speed of ASP is quite enough.
3.ASPX is based on Object Orinted Programming, but in most small sites, Procedure orinted programming is used, we never build objects, and POP is more efficient.ASPX is for three-tiered structure with a single layer of business logic component, but in reality, most of us used two-tier structure,that is Presetation layer and Datalayer, we can layout the page and change the database in a single page, quite effienct too.
I want to return a 404 response from an ASP script (IIS 5).
Response.Status lets me set the response string, but if I don't include any HTML text myself, the result is an empty page.
Is there a way to 'redirect' it to the server's default 404 response, as if the URI really doesn't exist, but without really redirecting it so the URL isn't replaced in the browser's address bar?
I am trying to replace a huge chunck of code that currently I incorporate with an #Include directive. The program rarely has to flow through that code, so I thought it would be better if I used Server.Execute. I found I can pass data TO the called asp file by creating an HTML <input> and erading it after I get there. However, I also need to read back ONE variable that the called file must set. I cannot figuer out how to do that. My backup positions are (1) I can keep on using the #Include technique, and (2) I can use a database to bridge the gap.Isn't there a way to carry data BACK TO the calling asp file FROM THE CALLED asp file?
I am using a stored procedure to insert set of values to a table.I am generating or calculating the value of the primary key and inserting that record and i need that value to use in my application so is there any possibilty to return a value from storedprocedure to asp application.
what i am using to do is creating a #temp table and inserting that value in the sp and then opening that value in the asp application and droping that table, but i hope it is not a efficient method.
When a user logs in, I want to redirect them to the page that they were previously on. How do I do that? I already have the login page working. I just need to edit the redirect part.
There is an access database and asp page .That asp page opens connection with that database,And opens a recordset online..
Is there any way that this opened recordset can be returned to Vb6 application which requested that Asp page to open connection and recordset and return some result.
I know there's a way to do this - well 99% sure anyway - and seem to remember reading an article or tutorial about how to do it but I'm not having any luck finding it. What I need to do (using MySQL & ASP3) is to find all rows with "X" as a non-unique ID - there may be 30 or so total - and grab them to be archived in a CSV file before deleting the record from a DB.The reason I want to avoid hardcoding the field names is that they're going to change with moderate frequency.
I just need to understand how the following line returns its values.Code: Dim Var For each FormElement in Request.Form
Var = Request.Form(FormElement)
Next You see say I have 5 form elements on an html form.
Element One Element Two Element Three Element Four Element Five I know that it is not checking the names of the elements and producing the results in that order, I know its not running through the Elements top to bottom on the form.
So in what order does FormElement return the values and based on what?
