Microsoft Access Dropdown List


l am building a new site using PHP which has a lot of pages pulling from an Access Database. I would like to have a dropdown list that pulls exhibitions from the database and then when the user selects one it shows the rest of the details from DB just below the dropdown list, hope that makes sense.

PHP And Microsoft Access
Is it possible to use php to interface with an ms access database?

Our current database (customers, suppliers etc) is in ms access format and we need to run msaccess. I dont feel like converting the whole database over to mysql and we still need the original system, the idea will be that the staff can access the database on the road thru a webpage.

Exporting To Microsoft Access
I have a PHP website with a mySQL database and a client wants to be able to see the database on his computer using Microsoft Access.

I would like to be able to make a special backdoor section for him, where he enters his username and password and is given a link which will make take a snapshot of the mySQL database and convert it to a Microsoft Access database which he can download to his computer.

Is this possible?

Since he isn't very computer savvy I need a way as user friendly as possible to let him download the database and view on his local computer.

Microsoft Access -> PhpMyAdmin
Alright, so what’s going on is that I have coded an entire website with in mind to have an Access Database. So everything works great...

But now I am faced with the problem that I have to have my webpage work with phpMyAdmin, which works completely differently in running my sql statements and everything, ie: ->EOF, select statement, etc...

Is there a way for me to have a smooth transition for my code to work with phpMyAdmin instead of Access at the moment, because recoding all of this means an enormous amount of work with not much free time left on my hands. Code:

Insert Into Microsoft Access Table Using ODBC
The following lines of code don't return an error but they also do not insert the row into the database:

$SQLText="Insert into member (MailingID, MemberID, [File As], EMail, LetterID, AudienceID, DateSent, Sent) Select $MailingCode, $row[0], '".$row[5]."', '".$row[6]."', $LIDToInsert, $AIDToInsert, '".$DateSent."', 1;";

print '<br>'.$SQLText;

$rs_upd=odbc_exec($link, $SQLText);

if (!$rs_upd) die("Couldn't update database");

I've tested the resulting $SQLText string in Access directly and it works find there so this must be a PHP or ODBC issue.

Inserting A Date Into A Microsoft Access 97 Database
I was wondering if anyone could help me insert a short date into microsoft access 97 using php? i can insert text no problem but i can't seem to be able to insert a date properly. i have been using

$strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblSupport (tDate) VALUES ($date)";

Note: i can insert a date if i hard code it like putting in #01

Dropdown List
I have a Dropdown list with Select with 1, 2, 3, 4, after select on of them it bust to refresh the page to what you select but it don't do it. PHP Code:

Dropdown List
i am trying to get two dropdown lists working on a page. How do i go about this. For example, I have 1 table which holds countries and cities. When a user selects a country in the first dropdown list, i'd like the second dropdownlist populate with a list of cities etc. from my database.

Populating Dropdown List
I am wanting to know how to populate the <SELECT> dropdown menu with all existing values from the DB and also have the value associated with that id selected. This is an updating area of my admin. Any ideas? Here's the code so far. At the moment it only retrieves the value assigned to that id. PHP Code:

Smarter Way Of Doing Dropdown List?
I've got a dropdown list that is acting as a filter on a table, so the user can select a value and the page is reloaded only showing the matching values from the database.

Now when the page reloads the dropdown was set to 'all' as it was first in the list, even if I'd selected a different value, this was confusing for users, so I added an initial <option> field which pulled the correct value from $_GET (code below) - however this is a little odd as it means the value appears twice!

Does anyone have a genius solution to this?  I've seen a <select selected="yes"> sort of thing around, but I don't know how I can tell the php to add this value dynamically? 

<select size='1' name='occupation'>
<option>".$_GET['occupation']."</option>
<option value='All'>All</option>
<option value='Student'>Students</a></option>
<option value='Professional'>Professional</option>
<option value='Hobbyist'>Hobbyists</option>
</select>

Autopopulate Dropdown List From Database
An events-registration page with a form containing a dropdown list for upcoming events, the events will be pulled from a table which is updated by...?

what i've gathered so far is that this can be done with PHP. I am a little unclear on the concept of how this is done. How does the updated information get input into the table?

1) can this be done (updating database) through a web interface by the client, or is it something i would have to do locally and then upload. If done by the client, can he delete/edit existing information--assuming he is not familiar with code.

2) what other things aside from html(good), sql(so-so), and php(newb) will i have to know?

i've seen a lot of good tutorials here and will have access to the necessary software. I just want to know if there is anything else i should know before i dive in head first without testing the PHP water, which i assume is frigid.

Dropdown List Of Files In Folder
I am preparing a form that includes a drop-down list consisting of the names of files in a certain folder on the server.

I only need to trap the file name (jpg), not the path and I'm not trying to upload the files or anything - simply allow the user to select one of a number of different image files (they're actually location maps).

Dropdown List - Trying To Get Default Populated From Db.
Nooby question but when I try and get this to work (it should identify which
rows in the database have GK, MID, DEF, FWD against them and then put
SELECTED into the option value to give a default of what the entry is
currently) it just adds SELECTED to all the results as if $row["Position"]
is returning true against all four conditions? What am I doing wrong? CODE:..

Cascade Dropdown Or Conditional List
I would like to create a conditional cascade form.  based on the selection, it can display or not display an input form for the user to enter an string of text. then at the bottom of the page (or when a user submit) connect all the sections including the input field all together (it's like a story maker?)

Dynamic Dropdown And Hardcode Dropdown In Select Form
I have plenty of examples of dynamic dropdown choices but none of hardcoded dropdown choices. The ultimate goal is to have a job with various tasks and to track the status of those tasks for a given job. I've used one of the tutorials here to begin the process. Below is the code I have to add work on a given task. Perhaps I actually need to "Update" a job as opposed to "add".

But the problem of the moment is I can't seem to hardcode one set of my options. This is the code I have: PHP Code:

html, that creates a wav from a text. Here's what I've tried -the php

no error

$Voice->AllowAudioOutputFormatChangesOnNextSet = false; //works - no
error
$Voice->AudioOutputStream = $FileStream; //HERE'S THE PROBLEM

Any Ideas How To Run Macro In Microsoft Publisher Through PHP COM ?
my macro in Publisher changes "123" into "321" (example)
but I can't be able to run it.
This is how far I get throught with PHP & Publisher:

<?
$pub = new COM('publisher.application') or die('Unable to load
Publisher');
print "Loaded Publisher, version {$word->Version}
";

$pub->Open('xxx.pub');

$pub->Documents[1]->SaveAs('xxx2.pub');

$pub = null;

?>

this works, but of course does not do anything else than open xxx.pub
and save it as xxx2.pub. I am trying to run my macro:

$pub->Documents[1]->RunMacro(replaceme);

where replaceme is my macro. I tried different variations:

$pub->Documents[1]->Run(replaceme);
$pub->Documents[1]->Application->Run(replaceme),

etc but no luck so far :(

PHP Will Not Read More Than 4096 From My Microsoft Sql Text Field.
I have a textarea that is saving to a mssql text (very large) field. The insert, update is working fine. However, when php reads the data using mssql_result function, I'm getting limited to 4096 characters read by php. I know that there are at least 6000 characters and I can see them using microsoft's query analyzer. This is not a magic quotes, single quote, quote, html entity or anthing like that. PHP will not read more than 4096 from my microsoft sql text field. Any ideas how I can get php to read more?

Microsoft And Zend Announce Collaboration To Enhance PHP On IIS
Microsoft's Product Unit Manager for Internet Information Services
(IIS), announced a new collaboration with Zend to improve
performance and stability of PHP on Windows.
This isn't just vaporware, either. During Andi Gutmans' keynote
(Andi is one of the creators of PHP and co-founder of Zend), Bill
announced the availability of a technical preview release of FastCGI
for IIS and demoed it for the audience as well.
FastCGI is a new component for Microsoft's Web server platform that
is available for download & evaluation today. It works IIS 6.0 in
Windows 2003 Server and IIS 5.1 in Windows XP. Even cooler, it also
works with the brand new IIS 7.0 making its debut with Windows Vista
and, later, as part of Windows Server code-named "Longhorn."
This announcement continues to solidfy IIS as the premiere Web
application server whether you are developing sites with ASP.NET or
any other server framework. Moreover, regardless of the programming
language or framework they choose, developers building sites of any
size can leverage the full capabilities of the Microsoft platform
with enterprise-class security, speed and stability.

Can I Convert MySQL Db Records Into Microsoft Word Documents?
i found the solution to export
file from mysql db into *.csv. but is there anyway to convert the
contents into *.doc and save in my webserver and providing a link for

List Contents Of A Folder, Make List Of Links
Does anyone know how I can write a script that:

- reads in all the files in a particular directory
- displays the file names in a html list and makes a link of them:
<ul>
<li><a href="filelocation1">filename 1</li>
<li><a href="filelocation2">filename 1</li>
<li><a href="filelocation3">filename 1</li>
</ul>

etc.?

So basically it creates a list of links with the contents in that directory,
so you can download them from there.

Get List Of Messages From One Table, Message List Indicator From
I have two tables. One has a list of messages left by users using fields named mbxno for the mailbox and msgno for the message number. I have another table that has mailbox settings for each user that contains a field named "messagelist" to indicate if they want to be included on the message list or not.

What I'm trying to create is a list of the most-recent messages with a lookup on the users table to indicate whether a message in the list should be included in the message list based on the user's mailbox settings.

SELECT messages.msgno, messages.mbxno, users.messagelist FROM messages, users WHERE (users.messagelist = &#391;') ORDER BY msgno DESC LIMIT 100

What I'm getting, though is a list that looks like this:

mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1

I think what's happening is that I'm using the wrong type of join and more rows are being created than necessary.

If I add "DISTINCT" to the query, I get a list of the most-recent messages as I expect, but the "messsagelist" value is sometimes wrong (again, probably because the data is getting jumbled). For example, the messagelist value for the second row (2214) should be 0, not 1.

mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2214 msgno: 0412141622 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2189 msgno: 0412141408 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0003 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1
mbxno: 2265 msgno: 0412132029 msglist: 1
mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412131950 msglist: 1

How should I be doing this? If nothing else, what kind of join will work with a long list compared to a value from a short list?

Looking For Dropdown Help
I have a dropdown in which i want it to open a soundfile when selected. So, how do I go about this.

I have a dynamic drop down that needs to be populated from different columns in a database. The problem I'm running into is that sometimes fields do not have a value. So I would rather those didn't print out. The code below prints out the blank fields.
