Here's a snippet from MSDN to give you a better idea about COLLATE... COLLATE Specifies a collation sequence for character fields in subsequent indexing and sorting operations. ... Note When you specify the SPANISH option, "ch" is a single letter that sorts between "c" and "d", and "ll" sorts between "l" and "m".

For instance, if you enter your name as John Doe and your SSN is 000-00-1234, then I want to be able to go to the firstName, lastName and SSN fields and get only the FIRST letter of the firstName & lastName and the LAST three of the SSN and put them together and add them to the userID field in the table (i.e. JD234). Right now, the SSN fields are split as ssn1, ssn2, ssn3, and are combined and entered into the SSN field as xxx-xx-xxxx. I would also like the capabilities of creating an ID based on two different things. For instance, if they supply an employee number INSTEAD of an SSN (we are currently changing our ID naming scheme, but not enforcing it at this time), then I would like to take the FIRST letter of the firstName and the last (6) of the employeeID and create the userID from that...do I use an If...Then...Else to see which they entered and produce the ID? Keep in mind that I want to do ONE of the OTHER, but the new scheme (using the employeeID field) takes precedence. Anybody out there done this before?? Thanks for your help! Why does it have to be so complicated?? Anonymous17-Jul-02 13:02 Anonymous 17-Jul-02 13:02  MySQL Has the following core functions: connect(), query(), store_result(), fetch_[row, feild]() num_rows(), num fields(), escape_string(), and close() There are others, but those are the most used. Data returned is all characters, and and you get to the data by: row=fetch_row(query_result); and row[N] = field N, it's that simple! Is there anything that simple for ADO or ODBC? I'm trying to port a MySQL app to SQL Server, and having a hard time finding anything that simple. My real concern is handling user-defined queries.

This is probably because you're running a desktop OS instead of a server OS. You should have a second disk with the Personal Edition on it, which will install on your machine.

I want to create a database for news articles. We didn't want to spend the money for SQL or any such software mainly because we are a non-profit organization and money isn't easily attainable. We do have licenses for Access, but is this actually the best way to go? And if you have any software recommendations or if I should try a different approach (not a databse) such as text files for each new article. I know of MySQL, but I am unfamiliar with it. We are using IIS on Windows 2000 Server. Your opinions, please . Thanks very much, Sean Re: Good Database for News Articles Paul Ingles20-Jul-02 16:19 Paul Ingles 20-Jul-02 16:19  I don't think Access would handle it, in my experience it tends to fall over after about 5-10 simultaneous connections. I understand MS SQL is probably out of range, so you could well look to RDBMS's like MySQL or even PostgreSQL. However, make sure you consider support, with a commercial product you do have someone to yell at when it all goes a little wonky! On the other hand, possibly consider using the DB as nothing more than a reference. i.e. store the actual news articles in an XML file, and then format these using XSL. You can then store both of these in a table which would reduce the size down, and you could probably get away with the performance. Keeping entire articles in a DB is probably not a good thing anyway, let alone when you're limited to Access! Updating a value in a Recordset using Find Mr. Bill12-Jul-02 11:38 Mr. Bill 12-Jul-02 11:38  I have a text file that I am reading in from and want to store the information in a recordset until all the values in the text file are read in. I am using find to find the row to put the value into but once I update a value and do a movefirst I get an unspecified error. //while m_pRecs->MoveFirst(); m_pRecs->Find(strTemp.AllocSysString(),0,ADODB::adSearchForward); if (!m_pRecs->adoEOF) m_pRecs->Fields->Item["Value"]->Value = strValue.AllocSysString(); //end while loop I have also tried filtering without success. Clearing the filter gives me problems. I don't want the db that I am using to change so this recordset is essentially just a place holder until the text file is read in and the values are pulled back out of the recordset. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Bill Re: Updating a value in a Recordset using Find Carlos Antollini12-Jul-02 11:58 Carlos Antollini 12-Jul-02 11:58  You need to update the recordset...

Just for my info. Doesn't the movefirst call update if the recordset has changed, I could be wrong that is why I am asking. Thanks for replying, Bill Re: Updating a value in a Recordset using Find Mr. Bill12-Jul-02 12:06 Mr. Bill 12-Jul-02 12:06  Could it possibly be the way I am assigning the value. m_pRecs->Fields->Item["Value"]->Value = strValue.AllocSysString(); That is a general field in an excel spreadsheet. I have changed it to text and it acted the same. Bill Re: Updating a value in a Recordset using Find Carlos Antollini12-Jul-02 12:22 Carlos Antollini 12-Jul-02 12:22  What cursor are using you?
