access_asp thread: Urgent ASP Help required for a complete novice
Message #1 by RDingwall@m... on Tue, 18 Dec 2001 18:28:21

I wonder if anyone would be good enough to help me. I am completely new
to ASP and have to link two databases by postcode. One database has all
my information stored names, addresses and postcodes this is called
Information.mdb. The other is being used on the internet where the user
can view his Trusted Postcodes which are stored in another database called
UserInfo.mdb. Both of these databases are Access databases. I will be
using UltraDev Dreamweaver 4 but again I am completely new to this as well.
I need to allow the user to view all his Trusted Postcodes so it needs to
link my database Information.mdb and the UserInfo.mdb database by
postcode. I have no idea how to do this.
I also need the user to be able to delete a Trusted Postcode he no longer
wants, add one if he wants and view all Trusted postcodes on a new page.
All these task are probably easy for someone who knows how and I just
wondered if anyone had any code to help me carry out the above.
Kind regards.

Hello:
I am also somewhat of a novice and may not be the person to help you, but
I feel your pain and thought I would tell you what little I know.
In order to construct pages that show or manipulate your data, it's
easiest to have both tables you mention in a single Access mdb file that
resides on a server somewhere. Within Ultradev, you will then construct
recordsets based on a SQL query of your two tables (this query is
constructed in the 'advanced' part). This query will have to be written
in SQL, which is not nearly as hard as it seems. What you will need to do
I believe is an 'Inner Join'. I puzzled my way through it in a day and it
isn't so hard. I would think that Ultradev would make it easier than I
had it. The basic SQL syntax is straightforward, try
http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_join.asp
I hope this helps and if you have any more desire for semi-skilled
advice, please mail me.
good luck
Ben

create two connections then search it
set conn1=server.createobject("adodb.connection")
set conn2=server.createobject("adodb.connection")
conn1.open "driver=...;dbq="&server.mappath("information.mdb")
conn2.open "...........;dbq="&server.mappath("userinfo.mdb")
set rs2=conn2.execute("select post from yourtable where username='xxxx'")
while not rs2.eof
str2=str2&"," &rs2("postcode")
rs2.movenxt
wend
if len(str2)<>0 and left(str2,1)="," then str2=right(str2,len(str2)-1)
set rs1=conn1.execute("select * from yourtable where postcode in("&str2&")"
..........
the recordset rs1 is the result
