Splitting Text Fields
I am about to show a text field from SQL7.0 database, but need to display x number of images spread out amongst the text!! Basically similar to how bbc.co.uk/news display news articles....
I am wondering the best way to do this...
I was considering splitting the text into variables and then to display these sections next to the images.
Anyone else done this?

Using ASP,VB Script,Access 2000. I have a macro which imports Fox Pro 2.6 databases into Access on a daily basis and then these tables are uploaded to the website.
When the tables are imported the fields which store numerical values with 2 decimal places are converted to text fields and it drops any zeros after the decimal point (e.g 124.40 becomes 124.4 and 110.00 becomes 100).
I am querying these new tables in my ASP pages but I want to convert these text fields back into numerical values with two decimal places. This is so that product price list on my page is all formatted the same. Is there a function I can use in my SQL statement to achieve this, or will I have to run a macro which re-designs the tables before I upload them to my website?

I have a form where you input year (number) and a Ref (number) and a section (char) and then submit to output a record, i added an if with a messageto prevent the eof and bof , and it is working if i inputed wrong numbers, but if i input text in the year or the ref, he will give the following message, how to prevent users from entering text into numbers fields, because in the database they are numbers, or what else could i do.

I have an events calendar on my site, allowing local people to post events there. Two problems have come up:1. In the details section, people will naturally want to include apostrophes (single quotes) from time to time. This fails, because VBScript sees them as delimiters. Is there any form of quote marks I can use to make sure this doesn't happen?
2. The same field is defined in the Access db as Memo, which normally gives up to 64K of text, as opposed to Text, which only allows 255. Despite this, text over 255 is ignored, leading to the text being truncated.

I have 3 fields in my form and one of them called ID with multiple text fields e.g (there are 10 text fields for ID) and when you submit the form all the 10 ID's should be submitted to the DB for that particular record with a single space inbetween the 10 ID's. Can any one tell me how this is possible.

Is there any way that I can break up text in a text field to spread across multiple fields in an access database? I've got a FAQ section that I want admins to be able to edit via an online interface. Unfortunately, it often doesn't fit into the 255 character restriction that access has. Any ideas?

I am trying to bind/link 2 text fields on my online form.
So they both should show the exact same text entered in them.
When text is entered in one of them I want to see it in the other text box and vice versa and when text is deleted from one of the boxes it should also be deleted from the other one aswell.

I am working on a small application for senior users, so I want to limit the option for incorrect input whatsoever. I have a drop down box that is populated from a query and I want to make it so that when an option is selected, the pertinent text fields are populated based on the selection.
All the info I need is already being extracted from the query so its just a matter of displaying the right info based on the selection. I have been looking for examples of code but they all seem to use javascript. I am not too strong in javascript so I kinda avoided those. if there is a pure asp example, that would be fine!

I have read that there can be a periodic problem when reading large varchar or text fields from SQL server (or memo fields from Access)--they can sometimes come up as empty strings.
What I have been unable to find out is whether this problem is still around in recent versions of MDAC (>= 2.8). Does anyone know whether this problem still occurs--is it still necessary to follow the steps in that aspfaq article?

I am having a problem with getting my date to display in the format needed. The date is being called up from a database in the form of the date and time but I need to have the them both seperate from each other. Its for a message board app I'm currently developing. I've tried various methods but none have worked so far. I am using this code at the moment:
<%Response.Write FormatDateTime(sectionRS("MesDate"), vbGeneralDate)%>
The result comes out the same as if no formatting is used. Do I need to create a variable for the value being called up from the database?

I have a var with the value of ADED I want to be able to break this var into an array of 4 elements, or it could be three, depending on the value of the variable.
I tried the following but got nothing.
Code:
dim strVar, arrVar
strVar = Request.QueryString("strVar")
arrVar(0) = Left(strVar, 1)
arrVar(1) = Mid(strVar, 2, 1)
arrVar(2) = Mid(strVar, 3, 1)
arrVar(3) = right(strVar, 1)
When I try to response.write(arrVar(2)), i get nothing. What am I doing wrong?

How do i do it in such a way that it becomes:

I have a variable that stores an amount of time in '00:00:00' format. It is a varchar in the database.
Is there a way to Split the value into hours, minutes, and seconds so I can add them?
I figure it would look something like
xx*60 + xx*60 + xx*3600? Or something like that?

Has anyone had the misfortune to try and split a querystring that has x duplicate name/value pairs within the querystring? I have tried every sort of combination to do this and it continues to just run through the whole querystring.
here is an example querystring
URL
The Address values, email values, title values are fine as they are named on the previous page. The problem is, the L1, L2, L3, L4, L5 etc are dynamically named from a db depending on what the user selects on a previous page and can be duplicated up to 6 times, depending on how many different locations they have. I am able to get all the values at once, but need to be able to split the duplicated name/value pairs as they at seperate locations.
so what i need to be able to do is
Location 1
L1 - 0
L2 - 1
L3 - 0
L4 - 0
L5 - 0
Location 2
L1 - 0
L2 - 2
L3 - 2
L4 - 0
L5 - 0

This is the code I have so far:
I take the email address and split at the "@" symbol. Then I split at the "." sign to get the firstname and lastname.
Most of the times, the email address is of the format:
FirstName.LastName@company.com
However at times, the email address can be just firstname@company.com
At such instances the code fails, how do I check for the instance of . before I split it again?

I've made my first ASP website that interacts with a detabase. All fairly standard: it can display the entire contents of the db, you can input new items, update and delete items, and I've just started making a search page...[!]
It all works fine if the user just searches with one word, but if they enter more than one word and then press search, I don't know how to split their searchstring up into [an array of?] different strings to search the db with.
Is this even the easiest way to do it, or am I just wasting my time?

There may be any number of these values including none. What is a good character to use to separate values? What commands do i use to split a string on the separator character into several strings?

I have an array I want to split. This is the code I am currently using:Code:
<%
dim aSelected
aSelected = split(request.form("option"),",")
for i = 0 to ubound(aSelected)
response.write (aSelected(i) & ("<br>"))
next
%>
This splits the array no problem. The problem I have is that the different variables (if thats the word to use?) the array is holding is sentences that contain commas in themselves. So the split is splitting my sentences. How can I split the variables at the end of the sentences. (some sentences have periods some don't so I can't use the ".").

This ASP page is a page which has FAQ. Some of the FAQ have answers with line breaks.
Questions and answers are stored in the database
When I output the answer, it displays like one long line. Hence I have written a small function to render this answer with line breaks where ever there are line breaks in this db field.

I have a variable named DressCode. The content of this variable is something like N040602
I want to split this variable into four parts:
DressCodea would be the N part
DressCodeb would be the 04 part
DressCodec would be the 06 part
DressCoded would be the 02 part
How do you do this is ASP, so it'll split the variable, no matter what the content is, as long as it is that format (ie 1 letter then 6 numbers).
