I know that asp can be used to fire off stored procedures within databases, but I was wondering - does a 'query' in Access mean the same thing as stored procedure? If it does, how could I get asp to fire off that procedure when needed?
View RepliesI never ever thought about this, but recently I made a query in access so I
can make a customer mailing list based on relational information and it was
so easy to make the query and join tables and assign criterea using access.
And I haven't tried or thought about this cause in my own small asp projects
I've never used a dbase with queries in it, but after seeing how easy it
was, it would save a lot of time from manually writting queries in asp.
So, what I'm asking is if I can use a query from an mdb in asp just like I
can access tables?
We have an Access data base with severl tables, queries and forms.We want to put it on the web.Is there a tool that will convert the Access queries and forms to ASP?Sorta like "splitting" the database... but instead of an Access FrontEnd... have an ASP front end?
View Replies View RelatedI have an access DB that has some queries built in to it.
Rather than putting the SQL in to my ASP Code (which I normally do) I was hoping there is some way to run the queries which already exist in the queries portion of the access DB. The queries do require me to input a variable though.
For example, there is one query called qry_FillForm which required me to pass a value called FormID (number)
If I have the value for FormID in my asp code, is there a way I can simply get this query to run? I can always create a
strSQL string and do it that way, I was just wanting to learn if it is even possible simply call the query that is alreay in the DB without having to manually put the SQL into my asp code.
I'd like to transfer al my hard coded sql queries to access stored queries and use them with parameters. Actually, I did not find any strong information how to do that. Please, provide me official information, or give me at least one example of using it(with
Select statement or other).
I have a created a cost reporting system which shows a level-breakdown
report. There are three levels in the report the lowest level holds the cost
items that are entered by the user these records also have an Entry Date.
The level above that is a Sum of the lowest level and the top level is the
Sum of the second level. I created the solution using three queries in
Access. I then use the queries in ASP to generate the report. But now I need
to use the Entry Date at the lowest level to re-generate the report with
values from the StartDate to the EntryDate (which is entered by the user).
Question is, can I do this using the construction I use, or do I have to
pull my queries to the ASP code and include the dynamic EntryDate? How do I
solve this?
I have an application, which simply consists of an Access database being queried by ASP code in a website, running on a Dell PowerEdge 1650 rack mount server (Pentium III 1.4 GHz) with 1024 MB ram. The server runs Windows 2000 5.00.2195 with Service Pack 4.
The application presents HTML tables to users, based on queries made by the user on the website.
Problem is: recently the construction of these tables has been very slow and the scripts time-out. The script timeout is set to about 3 minutes.
The application has been running for 2 years without any problems, well one. About 6 months ago the same thing was happening. I compacted and repaired the database - did not fix it. However on restarting the server it was back to normal, producing the tables immediately.
Now that the same problem is occuring again, neither a restart or a shutdown-restart fix the problem. The straight HTML part is served immediately, but it is evident that it chokes on the tables.
There are two other applications on the same server written in the same style, but much more simple. They are working fine. Code:
Normally I use Access database with ASP, and I create queries using the wizard which Access has. Then, I copy and paste the code in the ASP page and create my SQL.
I was wondering if it is easier to call the query directly with its name from Access, or else continue using the old procedure.

View Replies View RelatedSay I have 5 fields in a form. I have figured out how to query a database using all 5 fields and display the records that match at least one of the fields.
I'm trying to figure out a way to, if say the user only fills in two fields, to only search the database for matching records based on just the two fields. As I have it now, the database is searched for the two fields they entered as well as three fields of "", which I would rather not have. Is this possible?
I have a DB. With 1 table called "products" and 3 product records. The 2 fields present in the table are called product_name and product_price. The names of the products are Product1, Product2 and Product3. They cost 13, 8 and 24. Which code (SQL and AP) would generate an output similar to this?
Total is: 45.
Product1 costs 13
Product2 costs 8
Product3 costs 24.
<%
SQL = "Select * FROM products" (plus some kind of sum function to calculate the total (to be able to display the sum before the various products) of the recordset without having to loop through the recordset first)

I need to connect to 2 different databases in ASP and execute two different queries. Please let me know how to proceed. I understand that ADODB.Command option can connect to only one database at a time.
View Replies View RelatedI am running the following code to an access database
' Recordset Object
Dim rs
' connecting to database
con.Open connStr
' executing stored procedure
Set rs = con.Execute ("exec SpotDesc")
' showing all records
While Not rs.EOF
Response.Write rs(0) & " " & rs(1) & "<br>"
rs.MoveNext
Wend
' closing connection and freeing resources
con.Close
Set rs = Nothing
This works and runs the stored procedure SpotDesc.
One question I have is that this line brings back the results
Response.Write rs(0) & " " & rs(1) & "<br>"
but requires me to know how many colums are being returned, ie rs(0) is column 1 and rs(1) is column 2
Is there a way of writing this line and it places all the columns there wheter it be 1, 2, or 3?
Ie a way of know how many columns are returned...
Is there also a way to show the column heading?
This "query2" is used in an MS Access environment.
SELECT T_Perso.*, query1.*
FROM T_Perso LEFT JOIN query1 ON T_Perso.IdPerso = query1.IdPerso;
In SQL, "query1" is :
SELECT T_Items.*, T_Items.IdTypeItem
FROM T_Items
WHERE (((T_Items.IdTypeItem)="Inscription"));
I would like to translate "query2" in full SQL language in order to use it
in ASP but I have some problems with syntax and sub-queries.
I suppose it's quite easy but.I'm a newbie in SQL.
Can I have one recordset execute a Select and then have another recordset execute a different Select, and then check if a field from the first recordset is different from the field in the 2nd recordset and if so write out that row on my displaying table?

I searched online, in my "SAMS Teach yourself active server pages 3.0 in 21 days" and it makes no mention of two queries on a single page. Is this even possible?
Is it possible to use an If statement to select a single query from a list of queries from an access db? Something like this:
If Request.Form("Womens") = "Pants" Then
'open the db and run the query called pants

'open the db and run the query called shirts
'on and on we go, etc.

My gender categories (women, men, etc.) have multiple sub categories (shirts, shoes, skirts, etc.). Does is make sense to use an if statement(assuming it can be done) in this manner? It seems it would make life easier to use one script to perform many tasks, as opposed to one script that does just one task.
the following statement doesn't work, even thoug when I execute SQL_1 and SQL_2 separetlly it works fine.
SQL_1 = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS ACTIVE_LINKS FROM TABLE_LINK WHERE ACTIVE = 1"
SQL_2 = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS UN_LINKS FROM TABLE_LINK WHERE ACTIVE = 0"

I currently have a sql query that pulls all records based on a variable(var1) inputed by a user from a form. Each record in my database has a time stamp assoicated with it. I want to give the user the option of pulling all records based on (var1) and allow them to sort based on date or time stamp also with a two fields that will take a range.
(ex. Beginning date and Ending date). So my default sql query will allow for var1 to be inserted and to have all records returned for the current day. BUT, IF A USER HAS ENTERED
A DATE RANGE then all records will be returned for that date range based on the var1's value. How could i go about about structuring my code for this? I was thinking about a "Switch" statement that could response to different user options with different sql queries. What do you guys think?
