    Implicit (system) timestamp per record?

    Does it exist? I've got a table of dates things happened to a user, and some of the fields are missing (noone bothered to mod the code to populate them). I'm hoping that MSSQL has some hidden field(s) which store the datetime a record was created/last modified. If so I could update the...

    DNS commands (from telnet)

    Hey all, newbie to this forum. Just a quick (and hopefully easy) question. I'm searched somewhat and can't for the life of me find anywhere the basic commands you pass to a DNS service. For example with an SMTP service you could do something like: HELO blah MAIL FROM: bob@home.com RCPT TO...

    Which code editor do you use?

    Sorry onpnt ... Boss noticed TextPad and EditPlus on computers today (actually touched a developers' computer!), and decided if we liked them he'd buy a 5 licence ... of one. Other dude has been using EditPlus, TextPad for me. Thought I'd better try the other before deciding, and I have to say...

    Linux versions of M$ client apps ...

    fluid11: Thanks, rdesktop did the job nicely. Unfortunately I haven't gotten it to connect to our live boxes yet - have to figure why M$ ISA Server won't let us through. Seems a M$ SQL capable client app is the tricky one. I'm using Knoppix boot-from-CD as the test .. not sure what version...

    Linux versions of M$ client apps ...

    Hey all, Linux dabbler here, I'm slowly trying to insinuate Linux into our workplace, given our boss gripes at all the M$ licencing costs. An all-out switch is simply not possible, nor is a server end start point for a switch likely. So, given I'm main programmer at my company, thought I'd...

    Response.Redirect does not allow display of html?

    Well, we use activePDF for PDF generation (we have some issues with it, but hey it works, generally). It allows you to set one password for viewing, and another for editing/printing/savings/etc codestorm Newbie Life Member. Fire bad. Tree pretty. - Buffy <insert witticism here>

    Which Is best - Fixed DSN or DSNLess??

    Why in DSN(-full :P) more secure? I would think it the work of 5 minutes to look into a DSN file/registry setting if the cracker had broken into your web server. codestorm Newbie Life Member. Fire bad. Tree pretty. - Buffy <insert witticism here>

    Implementing Error Trapping

    As always, my first suggestion is - use Javascript ASP, not VBScript ASP! Then you can use try/catch (assuming the server is running a new enough scripting engine version). (It's just more elegant anyway). codestorm Newbie Life Member. Fire bad. Tree pretty. - Buffy <insert witticism here>

    how to get return string value from ADO

    At an untested guess the variables aren't automatically repopulated with the output values. To test, try: Response.write cmd.Parameters.Item(2).Value Response.write cmd.Parameters.Item(3).Value ... after running the proc. codestorm Newbie Life Member. Fire bad. Tree pretty. - Buffy <insert...

    Response.Redirect does not allow display of html?

    As an aside when generating PDFs - remember to password protect them. We produce PDF reports for clients' employees, and it just wouldn't do for them to go modifying their scores :P codestorm Newbie Life Member. Fire bad. Tree pretty. - Buffy <insert witticism here>

    Response.Redirect does not allow display of html?

    That's (almost) what I do at work. Only modifier to Tarwn's thing would be to actually redirect to the page that makes the PDF, else you may end up requesting the PDF that doesn't exist yet. My first page is something like: <html><head><meta http-equiv=&quot;Refresh&quot; content=&quot;2...

    Can anybody help with a sql syntax question????

    sqlstr = &quot;SELECT * FROM nanny left join references on nanny.id = references.id&quot; sqlstr = sqlstr & &quot; WHERE nanny.id = &quot; & request(&quot;id&quot;) You had nanny, references. If you are using JOINs, you don't list all tables at the start - you only do it that way if the sql...

    Which code editor do you use?

    Re: onpnt on TextPad: You forgot one of it's nicest features (I think - I skimmed) - the add-ons. Have added ftp batch scripts, java compiles, syntax lookups for most programming langs, etc, etc, as hotkeys. I assume EditPlus does this too? As for debugging - go javascript every time ;) It's...
