Hello,Is it normal that VB .NET 2005 Express can't connect to my local SQL 2000 server ?It seems that all I can do is connec to an Access DB or create a new SQL mdf file but then it nags that I need SQL 2005 Express aswell?I'm new to this ide stuff so I might overlooked something here tho (tend to code in vbscript, asp so not familiar with all this)

Hello,Is there a way to retrieve the relative path to a given file or url in PHP?in ASP I can use server.mappath("/text/text.txt") which would give me c:\inetput\wwwroot\text\text.txt as result.Can't seem to find something simular for PHP tho ???(unless it's realpath which doesn't seemt to work under XP?)

Hello,I wrote a simple exe file in VB Express and apparently when you run the exe in a dos box it prompts that it requires .NET Framework 2.xxxx.Ain't that mainly for the GUI stuff?And is there a way to compile that file to an non-.NET exe but still fully working?

Hello,Is there a way to pass through variables in an HTA 'application' ?the way I'm used to work is like this...in ASPop=request("op")select on opcase "" call setformcase "add" call addcase "delete" call deletecase "update" call updateend selectsub setform%>my startpage html stuff<%end suband the rest of the subscan an HTA be build like this aswell?how would I approach this? there doesn't seems to be a response.write like feature that I can use or do I have to use .innerhtml to create each page?

Nope, doesn't work either

Hello,I'm into vbscript now and most of the stuff is going better than first expected but now I have the following problem...I want to call a "dos/win32shell" application from in my script to extract some files out of an archive with the following code...set shell=wscript.createobject("wscript.shell")shell.run "7zip.exe", 1, trueall I get is "the system can not find the file specified"doesn't even work when using the full path like "h:\vbs\7zip.exe"although it works when I change it to "notepad" or "notepad.exe"any idea what could be wrong?

Can you tell me how? Compiling with Visual Studio you mean?

Hello,I'm trying to list all the computers and their last logon date out of the Active Directory.For some reason all the dates are ending with /2005 although that some of the computers haven't been on the network for 2 or more years They all have the same date/time stamp aswell which is even strangerAnyone else experienced some problems with this?

I do it like this...<!-- #include file=/common/header.asp --><%here the stuff that changes on each page%>I don't get why you want to use <!--include File=<%=Variable%>-->just do a check in the header.asp file on that variable and do the changes there.<!-- #include file=/common/footer.asp -->

Hello,I'm quite experienced with asp and have been asked if I'm not interested to do some windows vbscripting.Having a look at the vbscript part at w3schools it's only talk about vbscript running client side in the browser. Wasn't it possible to create a .vbs file that runs in a Windows shell aswell with a lot more options?If so, where can I find some examples of it and can those vbs source files be compiled to EXE's aswell to prevent people messing around in the code?

Cool, altho there are better ways of doing that.just let is scan if a next picture exists in that folder or not and then you only need to pass the number of the current picture.

what do you get when you print out p_pics & n_next_pic ?show us the results from this...!<%=request("p_pics")!<br>!<%=request("n_next_pic")!<br>

I guess you'll make your life easier with the dd-mm-yyyy format, then it's justfdate=request("formdate")mydate=right(fdate,4)&"/"&mid(fdate,4,3)&"/"&left(fdate,2)or split it up which is even better en more secure

better use post, espiacially in log in parts of your site, otherwise people could see the username and password in the address bar if you don't redirect immediatly

hmm that code of your will only insert tblleft1 or tblleft4this should be a solution (without using nested if then else elseif stuff)<%randomize()filenr=int(rnd*4)+1select case filenrcase 1%><!-- #include file="include/tblleft1.asp" --><%case 2%><!-- #include file="include/tblleft2.asp" --><%case 3%><!-- #include file="include/tblleft3.asp" --><%case 4%><!-- #include file="include/tblleft4.asp" --><%end select%>if it doesn't work try case "1" , dunno if it deals with numbers
