Problem Importing Text In Access Memo Field

I'm using asp to retrieve data from a server and import that data in a client that uses MSAccess, into a memo field. The text hes line breaks 0D 0A (the usual DOS line breaks). However the client sees these line breaks as two squares!

The strange thing is that when I look at the exported text (yes, I also export text from the client to the server), it also contains the same line breaks. So the exported text from the memo field can look exactly the same as the imported text, and before the export the line breaks are correctly shown als line breaks, but after the import that same line breaks are shown as squares! I would like to see line breaks after the import and NO squares.

Memo Text Field Width

I have a memo field in my recordset that will have varying amounts of text inserted into it from an online form. This is then uploaded to a table cell. At the minute it is just going in one long line across the table. How can I get this text to wrap or line break at a table width of say 500px. Is this an html or asp solution?

Cannot Insert Large Text Into Database Memo Field

I'm trying to insert this text into a memo field:

Set cnn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
str = Server.MapPath("database/alumni.mdb")
strDB = "Provider=MICROSOFT.JET.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & str
cnn.Open strDB
Set rst = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")

sql = "INSERT INTO tblMessage (MessageID, UserID, PostTypeID, Subject,
DatePosted, MessageText, Active) Values ('" & vMessageID & "','" &
vUser & "', " & vPostType & ",'" & vSubject & "','" & vDatePosted &
"','" & vMessageText & "',0)"

rst.Open sql, cnn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic

vMessageText = "This is a test just to see if it will blow up on a
large comment. Just testing again. Don't mind me."

Can I put this into my database field or is it too much and if not,
how do I solve this issue. I need to be able to post messages and
input for large fields.

Can't Print An Access Memo Field

I can't print the contents of an Access memo field. Every other field type displays fine but this one.

I saw an old thread saying that you should first assign the memo field to a variable but that also doesn't seem to work (please see the attached bit of code). The memo field is "Message". Code:

Insert MEMO Field To Access 2000

I have been doing adodb connections and using Access2000 for several lightweight websites. I have never had any problem with any of the SQL commands to insert, update, delete, etc.

I can insert a record into a memo field just fine ... up to a certain number of characters (nowhere near the 65K limit). After several hundred characters, the insert fails ... nothing happens ... the execute just idles and no insert is done. Anyone help? I have read about data types, etc., but everything I read sounds as if ASP and Access 2000 are suppose to handle the type conversions. They have been doing it up to this certain size.

Working With A Memo Field

Here is what I am trying to do

filecont = objRS("contents")
filecont = replace(filecont,vbLF,",")

if i use the objRS instead of the filecont in the replace function i get the
same issue. If I do anything with this field (use InStr, or other menial
functions) I get no records can be displayed. The contents field is a memo
field within Access, i am wondering if this is causing the issue?

Content From A Memo Field

I have an Access 2000 db with a memo field.Into the memo field I put text with bold attributes, URL etc etc

What I need to to is converting the rich text contained into the memo
field in plain text.That's because I truncate the string text but if, when I truncate it
there's a rich tag the code following the truncated string is corrupted.Don't know if it's clear enough.

Just to summarize:

1) memo field cointaining rich text
2) I need to transform it in plain text

Information From A Memo Field

I don't know what i am doing wrong. I have an access database,and One of my fields is
Memo format. So when i try to display the information in that field, I was unable to do so, nothing would come up in IE. but the data is there in the fields.something like this.

response.write(rs("description"))

when i changed the field to "text" format, everything worked perfectly fine, ASP was able to display the information stored in that field. But when i changed it back to memo, it would display nothing.is there like a special way of displaying information stored in a Memo field?

Displaying A 'memo' Field

I know how to display a text field from an mdb file. You type: <%= CmdPopulateStates("fieldname") %>

where CmdPopulateStates is declared as:

Set CmdPopulateStates = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")


But if 'fieldname' was a memo field rather than text field then the information isn't displayed. In fact, if it's anything other than text then it won't be displayed. How do I display other field types?

Memo Field Truncated

I have several asp pages that display information from an Access DB. Some of the fields are memo fields. If I use simpler queries such as:

SELECT * FROM " & MyTabla & " WHERE " & MyCriteria

the memo fields are retrieved and displayed Ok.

However, if I use more "complicated" queries such as:
SELECT " & selecti & " FROM " & MyJoin & " GROUP BY " &grupi & " HAVING " & MyCriteria

the memo fields get truncated after the first 255 characters, i.e. only the first 255 characters are returned, but the fields are larger and get retrieved ok if I use the "simpler" queries!

Hyper-efficient Text Importing

I am working on a project that involves importing IIS Log files into a SQL
Server database (and these logfiles are big --> Some up to 2GB in size).

Up until now I thought that DTS or the BULK INSERT command was the fastest
method out there, but still proves to be long (taking an average of 45mns to
an hour to process each log file).

Because I have to import the log files from three web heads in my cluster
(therefore 2GB log files per server times three servers), this really throws
off the concept of "real time" or near "real time" reporting.

So that begs the question. WHAT IS THE MOST EFFICIENT, AND QUICKEST
TEXT-FILE TO SQL SERVER IMPORTING TOOL, METHODOLOGY, SAMPLE CODE, WHATEVER,
OUT THERE??? Code:

Memo Field And Isnull Issue

i am testing if my memo field (access DB) has anything in it by doing

if isnull(rs("memofld")) then

do this

end if

The script is not picking up a valid value if it is null or not. I have also tried testing for it equalling "" but no lick either.

Read alot of stuff online with people having the same problem but no luck. I have tried selecting the memo field last in the sql query but this makes no difference.

VBasic Text Field (phone Number) Calculating Data Before Inserting Into Access

I have a text field in a web page I am working on that seems to be calculating phone numbers before inserting them into an Access database. i.e., 867-5309 will result as -4442 in the Access text field. My guess is that the webserver or client is processing it before inserting it. Is there any way to stop this other than using a validation script?

ACCESS Memo Fields

I need to be able to retieve variable length (>255 characters) messages which have been saved in a memo field in an access data base on the server. I am using the following code to test this : -

<%
set objconn = server.createobject ("ADODB.connection")
set objrec = server.createobject ("ADODB.recordset")
objconn.open "DSN=daters"
strsql = "SELECT DISTINCT messages.* FROM messages WHERE messid = 305 ;"
objrec.open strsql, objconn, adopenforwardonly, adlockoptimistic,adcmdtext
%>

<%=objrec("text")%>

The message is found and retrieved but truncated to 255 characters as if it were an ACCESS text field not a memo field.

The message which is originally user created on another page, writes in full to the ACCESS memo field. Also, if I download the data, and retrieve the message offline via an ACCESS form, it displays fully. Seems then like an ADO issue in retrieving memo fields Probably my syntax?

Searching Multiple Memo Fields In Multiple Tables In Access

I have a search option on my website, which should perform a search on 4 fields, as follows:

tblNews
headline
content

tblDatabank
filename
description

It only needs to return matches which are an exact match of their search criteria. For instance, searching for "I am here" would return a record which contained "I am here", but not just "I" or "I am" etc.

I need to return all these records as part of one recordset preferably, as I want to be able to order them etc., though I imagine you may suggest I use an array somehow to merge two recordets etc., then reorder them?

Text Field!

i am using ASP with recordset I am using nvarchar field and TEXT field in ms sql server
i update it as follows

rs("thenvarcharfield") = request.form("somedata")
rs("thetextfield") = request.form("someotherdata")
rs.Update

at one page it works fine and when i use the same kind of code to update another TEXT field it doesn't update and the I.E. loading bar increases very slowly and the next page never loads someone suggested to use .appendchunk i used rs.appendchunk and i got the error "object doesn't support this property or method" he also said that .appendchunk cannot be used to update nvarchar.

i removed the code to update TEXT field and the page loaded as expected (normally)!
Why one text field worked fine while the other didn't?

Updating A Text Field

I am trying to write some code that inserts or updates a text field in my SQL Server 2000 database. The SQL statement is created using a submit from a form, and the text is coming from a <textarea>, and therefore being placed into the SQL statement via a Request("field"). However, due to limitations in SQL Server 2000 and text fields, I can not use a simple Update or Insert command with text over 8000 bytes.

Does anybody have any sample statements that will help me update that field with larger amounts of data? I have tried using the WRITETEXT function and UPDATETEXT function with little or no success.
