Thanks everyone for your support. I am going to learn a lot and I'll let you know how things go.

From what I have researched this may be because the user doesn't have the environment variables set on their computer. In that case I might just use the GetUserName API call instead. I would still like to know why the Environ function isn't working...

I have an application where I'm authenticating the user based on their windows logon at startup. This works great except for VPN users offsite have complained that they are not able to be authenticated even though they are using the same logon as they would normally. I'm using the...

If you declare CDatabase as an Application-level variable then it can be available to everyone in the application.

You have to grant access to the DB for the ASPNET user account.

Can you post a few sample records from the main and codes table?

Usually it is the IUSR_computername account.

Without looking at your query, and it might be a good idea to post it, you might do a left join on the table that has the val column. A left join would display all values...

Yeah, I'm in...luckily. I didn't really handle this the best at first but I will make up for it by working hard and doing my best.

The main reason to migrate to .NET is to web enable the applications and to enable the customer to be able to run their own reports across the web. Also, they want to provide demos of applications in a customer portal area. You could do this with ASP but ASP.NET is a far better development...

I called up the company and explained that I had gotten cold feet and that I would like a second chance to prove to them that I could do this job. I told them that I didn't want to look back on life with regret that I backed away from a great opportunity. The manager said he would have to...

You're very insightful. I think one of the reasons I didn't take the job was also because I lacked confidence. I don't question my motivation, desire or wanting to give 100%. I question my ability sometimes because I thought that if I were really a good programmer, I wouldn't struggle so...

I should have listened to your wisdom. I just hope somewhere down the road another chance like this will come before me.

It was one of the hardest decisions I've made in my life. The best project I have created is a time tracking application that had a whopping user base of 50 people. Accounting uses it to submit allocation of time to the federal government in order to be billed for invoices. On my own time...

Another chance like this may never come again and that was the risk I took but I didn't want to end up in the unemployment line if I didn't do the job well. The current job I have now gives me an income while I can study and work on things to the point where I am a know enough to tackle the...

When I can get to the point of creating a professional looking web site on my own, without any assistance from anyone else, then I think I'll be ready for a job such as this. I'm able to create functional web pages and incorporate crystal reports into a web application, but I'm just not a...

The guy who interviewed me was a CEO and he didn't have any technical knowledge. He was not able to put bullet holes through my knowledge base by asking a lot of technical questions. All I did was provide a list of about 15 things that I thought could be done to improve his company's web site...

Well, it is too late at this point. I feel I need to get better in order to take a job like that. I think in another year I will be ready. And actually they aren't looking to replace me at the job I am at now. The other developers were happy because they had frightened looks on their face...

I'm glad there are people like you here who are so willing to help. It sure makes my job a lot easier...thanks a million.

I think what irritates me is that I have to constantly come on this site to find the answer to something. I feel I should be able to figure these things out myself. I'm just being a copy cat.
