Import From Csv - Remove Commas
I'm importing data from a csv file but have the following problem.
It see any comma in a specific column as the end of the current column and move the rest of the values into the next column I.E Data from column 4 display as data from column 5.
I do know that it's comma delimited but would like to know if there's no way that I can distinguish between the commas in a column and the commas that indicate a new column.

Remove Commas From End Of String

Trimming Commas
I'm dynamically building an SQL string to do an execute, and keep ending up with a leftover comma, so the string looks like this. INSERT INTO Software ( Title, Version, Licensing, Total_Licenses, support_phone, support_email, Campuses_Licensed, Comments, support_web, FundingSource, Course_title, Subject, Grade_level, LocalExpert, ACTIVE, CATE, EntryDate,) VALUES ( 'Bob's Super Crappy Software', '4.3', 'labpack', '36', '555', '555', 'Alexander, Bilhartz, Central, Fairmeadows, Hyman, Daniel', 'James is testing this', 'www.bob.com', 'Campus PO', 'Math', 'Math', '4, 5, 6', 'Patrick Williams', '1', '0',) Both commas are added dynamically and can be trimmed on the fly. I tried using RTRIM(strSQL, ",") but this didn't work.I put the fields into an array and tried to add only commas to all but the last entry, but that also didn't work.
CSV Commas In Data
How is the best way to handle commas in data in CSV files? I'm currently using the following: set fso = createobject("scripting.filesystemobject") set act = fso.opentextfile(server.mappath("filename.csv")) itext = act.readall arrlist = split(itext,chr(10)) and then looping through the rows and splitting at commas. However, some of the data has commas in it, which is throwing things off.

Commas Getting Inserted Into Database
I don't know if anyone has encountered this before. I've written ASP code to insert, update and delete records from Access and SQL Server tables before but this is the first time I face this issue - I have a form that inserts data into an Access table. For a few of the fields, commas are getting inserted into the table. If the field is left blank, there is a comma inserted. If we enter data in the field, the comma is appended to the field value (eg: smith, ) The only thing different that i'm doing here from what I've done before is I'm inserting a larger number of fields into the table - 117 fields!! Do you think the insert statement hasn't been written correctly?

I would like to know if you can display only certain data into a field between commas or any other symbol without using the curshort feature. For example. I have the following.

Inverted Commas Hides Data
how to avoid an error when calling data to a text form field that contains inverted commas? When I enter "inverted commas" into a text field on a form and save to my Access database, after save the text field appears to be blank but when I look in the database it appears as entered. The problem is when the text field calls the field it doesn't show if the text is encased in inverted commas. For instance, in my form field 'title' I enter: Big Title "Yeah" After saving the form, all that appears within the form field 'title' is: Big Title Yet the access database itself shows: Big Title "Yeah"
String With Commas, How To Use Instr And Mid Function In A Loop?
I have a string --> 7,8,9,10. This string may contain more or less than 4 numbers. I want to separate each number and run an sql query for each number. for example: select * from table1 where code = '7' select * from table1 where code ='8' and etc.... Can I do this in a loop?
CSV Import
I have scoured the web for everything related to CSV imports in ASP. I have everything working, but one issue remains. My web application accepts a file upload of a Tab Delimited text file, parses through it to create a Comma Delimited file, creates that file on the server, and then goes to the CSV import page. The CSV import page accesses the Comma Delimited file through ODBC text driver, and I generate SQL insert statements from each record. The problem is, one field is a "room number" field which generally contains numbers, but several entries also contain letters, an entry might be "A121" or "AUD" or "254", etc. I'm guessing that ASP or the ODBC text driver "guesses" the datatype of the field, because whenever it hits a record with letters in the "room number" field, it uses the last numeric value for that field from any previous record. If there are multiple records with letters in this field, it will continually show the most recent numeric entry from that field, even if it was 5 or 10 records ago! I am accessing these values using recordset("fieldname"), and all other fields display correctly, except recordset("roomnumber") when there are letters and numbers in the entry. I've opened the CSV directly on the server and the fields are all fine, in the "room numbers" field, the entries which are all numbers are right-aligned, while entries with numbers and letters are left-aligned, but I assume that's just the way Excel displays them. I am aware that adding quotation marks around this field would solve the problem, but there is no way I can have the data format changed. I might try to add quotations while creating the CSV file on the server, but this is such a strange problem that I'd like to figure it out anyways.

Import Objects In Asp?
I have a problem with including an object in my asp page. I�ve translated an algoritm I found that was written in javascript and it needs a method, floor(), from System.Math to work. in javascript you can just write Math.floor(x+1) but it seems asp doesn�t automatically include that Math object. It�s a little weird since the method Round() can be used withour any includes of any kind and thats a part of the Math object! So... How do I do to access this floor() method? I tried to write: <%Imports System.Math %> but it doesn�t seem to do the trick.

I have searched a lot at GOOGLE, but i can't found the way to import data from a form textarea into database. Actually my web page would like to allow the user to export their phone book from excel file or outlook phone book, then import into my database.

Example data: abc, abc@hotmail.com, 999999999 bcd, bcd@hotmail.com, 888888888 i can't find any solution that can read line by line, because normally when the we parse the data from the form textarea. All the text will become string that without the <br>.
