RE: Access SQL stored procs
I found out where the error comes from. For MSSQL , when we are passing in as Numeric field, they do not accept empty string. Must pass in a zero if it is empty string then can avoid the error message. BUt for oracle, its fine. Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, it is the realization of how much you already have. -Original Message- From: Chris Lofback [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, May 31, 2002 8:38 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Access SQL stored procs I've seen errors like this when sending a NUMERIC CF datatype to a BIGINT datatype field. I used to always use NUMERIC for any numeric data (seems like it should work, right?) but I've had the occasional problem with it (mainly in Oracle). If the field datatype is BIGINT, try switching the CFSQLTYPE to CF_SQL_BIGINT instead of CF_SQL_NUMERIC. Chris Lofback Sr. Web Developer TRX Integration 28051 US 19 N., Ste.

But it would have made better sense to keep everything together, and not like this! Probably because the other applications you mentioned are client programs that end-users will be using, so they would go into a normal program directory. Since ColdFusion is a server application, it should have its own directory off the root. This makes it easier to manage. Since previous versions of CF were also off the root, it would probably cause considerable confusion if they moved it. If it ain't broke, don't fix it, as they say. -Justin Scott, Lead Developer Sceiron Internet Services, Inc. http://www.sceiron.com __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

Re: File Browse buttons with input type=file
Yes, but it's such a pain that I usually write it off as not worth it. A file input object in IE (only IE, there is an RFE for Mozilla support) has a click method that will simulate a user click and bring up the file browser. http://www.devguru.com/Technologies/ecmascript/quickref/fileupload.html What you have to do is set the file upload objects visibility to hidden, and then use a normal button and input tags as replacements, which of course you can style however you want. Then add an onclick event handler to the new browse button that fires the hidden file upload objects click method, this brings up the file browser. Finally add an onchange handler to the hidden file upload field which copy's the file field's value to your custom input field. Something like this: function showFile(fText) { document.getElementById('fTextField').value = fText; } function browseFiles() { document.getElementById('fileField').click(); } input type=file id=fileField style=display:none onchange=showFile(this.value) input type=text id=fTextField input type=button onclick=browseFiles() value=browse Beware, I just typed that out so it probably wont work. :) -- jon Monday, June 3, 2002, 12:54:32 AM, you wrote: NH Is there a way to apply a style to the buttons on the input type=file NH buttons?

Re: Create dropdown selection from external files
You could also treat it like two lists right? You could definately use the list functions to loop through line by line (using a CRLF as the delimiter as your code did), but you would encounter two main problems with parsing out the line numbers: 1) Not every line in the file contains the same format of data, so the list functions would choke on lines that did not contain the folio data (for example, the S U M M A R Y O F F O L I O S / L E A D header). To be safe you'd need to compare each line against a regular expressions anyway to make sure that it is a line you wanted to process, so it just makes sense to use regular expressions from the get-go. 2) Each parseable line contains a string like so: 001folio: 165 . . . 011.50 points free It was my understanding that the posted wanted the 165 part of that string, NOT the 001 part. It looked to me like your code would treat each line as a delimited list and would grab the first element in that list which would be the 001 part. If this WAS the desired result then your function would work great, although I would first validate that the line was well-formed: cfloop from=1 to=#listLen(sIN, delimiter)# index=i cfset temp = listGetAt(sin,i, delimiter) cfif ListLen(temp, ) EQ 2 !--- make sure the line is well-formed --- cfset arPages[i] = listGetAt(temp, 1, /cfif cfloop Regards, Seth Petry-Johnson Argo Enterprise and Associates __ Your ad could be here.

searching large amounts of text
Hi, everyone. A friend of mine has a bunch of data currently stored in InMagic's DBTextWorks. This data is a series of document records. Each record has several fields with general information (author(s), publication date, etc.) and a field with the body of the document. This last field, of course, is rather enormous compared to the other fields. His current tool works very well for this particular application. Looking into the future, though, he is starting to think that it might be wise for him to consider moving it all into ColdFusion with an Oracle back end. He came to me to ask whether I had any ideas. Unfortunately, I know very little about search features in ColdFusion. The best advice (not so good) that I could give him was to have a nightly batch job that would concatenate all fields from a single record and enter it into a single field of a new table. Then it could do a Verity index of this single column, allowing advanced searching across the record. He wondered whether there was a better way, and specifically whether there was a better way to do live queries without this sort of nightly batch job. His initial stab, an extremely complicated SQL statement, was prohibitively slow. So I'm writing to you all to find out if there is a better way. I don't want anyone to solve the problem; that's too much to ask. But if anyone can suggest some places where my friend might look, some ideas that he might search on for reading, he and I would be very grateful. To better define the issue, here are some pretend, but more or less accurate, details: approx. 120,000 records single table: GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters GeneralInformationColumn1 50 characters __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

His initial stab, an extremely complicated SQL statement, was prohibitively slow. I'd probably recommend using Verity as well, but there's no reason to go to all that work to use it. Just query the database to return the fields you want indexed, and index those fields; don't bother with creating a new table or any of that part. cfquery name=qIndexTable1 ... SELECT primarykey, field1, field2, field3, ... FROMTable1 /cfquery cfindex action=refresh collection=mycollection query=primarykey title=field1 body=field1,field2,field3,... ... cfquery name=qIndexTable2 ... ... /cfquery cfindex action=update collection=mycollection ... Note that this may take some time, so you probably want to do it on a scheduled basis, and if you're using CF 4.5.x, you want to prevent anyone from searching the collection until the indexing is complete. If it takes long enough, you might consider using two collections, and indexing them on an alternating schedule.

RE: SQL2000 JDBC Driver and CFMX
least in my mind, occurs when you already have a bunch of Windows users and you want to use their accounts as database logins. in a mixed (cf plus other apps) environment this would actually be the norm. I can see it being an issue if you don't have your server set up for mixed-mode authentication, but beyond that, it's easy enough to just create a native SQL login. I haven't tested that at all, and it doesn't bother me much as long as I can still call my beloved stored procedures. dynamic sql is a pain in sp often doesn't buy you much. still use cfquery for this most of the time. It doesn't buy you much as far as functionality, but it's a nice feeling to simply deny a user the right to run arbitrary SQL, from a security perspective.

CFHTTP limitations?
Over the past few months, there have been several posts (including a bunch from myself) concerning issues with CFHTTP. I was wondering if some of you who have worked extensively with CFHTTP can shed some light on the current issues/problems/limitations with CFHTTP. Essentially, I have been working on a project for the past several months that uses CFHTTP to connect to a Python server that performs high-level math calculations. The amount of data (all textual, no binary) going through the pipe on any given call is roughly 15K...no, that's not a type-o, I mean 15K. While we haven't had many issues, I'm looking for pitfalls if I were to upgrade, and potentially alternatives to the tag, specifically if the overall performance will increase. This app will be high-volume when it's relased, and stress tests have shown this call to be a bit of a bottleneck. I have searched the archives and seen issues with variable encoding and stuff like that. Would some of you be good enough to give me even a checklist, let alone a short explanation of CFHTTP issues? I am using CF 4.5.2 on Solaris (upgrading straight to MX in the coming months) if that helps. Thanks in advance, Dave. __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

RE: datetime formatting
dim mydate, mytime, timedate, final set mydate = date set mytime = time set timedate = mydate mytime set final = formatdatetime(timedate, 0) Not sure if this will work pulled it out of my head and pulled the other from a vbscript help file. Josh FormatDateTime Function Returns an expression formatted as a date or time. FormatDateTime(Date[, NamedFormat]) Arguments Date Required. Date expression to be formatted. NamedFormat Optional. Numeric value that indicates the date/time format used. If omitted, vbGeneralDate is used. Settings The NamedFormat argument has the following settings: Constant Value Description vbGeneralDate 0 Display a date and/or time. If there is a date part, display it as a short date. If there is a time part, display it as a long time. If present, both parts are displayed. vbLongDate 1 Display a date using the long date format specified in your computer's regional settings. vbShortDate 2 Display a date using the short date format specified in your computer's regional settings. vbLongTime 3 Display a time using the time format specified in your computer's regional settings. vbShortTime 4 Display a time using the 24-hour format (hh:mm). Remarks The following example uses the FormatDateTime function to format the expression as a long date and assign it to MyDateTime: Function GetCurrentDate ' FormatDateTime formats Date in long date. GetCurrentDate = FormatDateTime(Date, 1) End Function -Original Message- From: Bosky, Dave [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, June 03, 2002 2:45 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: datetime formatting I'm using mySQL with a datetime field.

RE: datetime formatting
might be inserting the value yourself from a storedprocedure then. The default will only be used when the user hasn't specified a value. example: you are insert the datetime yourself DECLARE @mytime datetime, @title varchar(50) SET @mytime = getdate() SET @title = 'this is a test' INSERT INTO table1 (CreationDate, title) VALUES (@mytime, @title) SQL Server does it for you DECLARE @title varchar(50) SET @title = 'this is a test' INSERT INTO table1 (title) VALUES (@title) What you probably are doing is assigning the getdate() to a local variables. and then doing an insert using this variables. If this is what are you doing then you are correct. SQL Server will insert the exact time for all records in the insert.

Re: if value exists, show it
Hi Trey! I simply want to test to see if a variable has a value (eg text has been returned from a query) and if so, show it. There seem to be a few options -- cfif isdefined(#variable#) #variable# /cfif As Raymond already pointed out, isDefined() takes a string as the input and returns a boolean that tells if the variable exists or not. This will return true even if the string is empty. There is no locking required specifically for isDefined(). cfif len(#variable#) GT 0 #variable# /cfif This assumes the variable exists and will output its contents if it is not empty (sounds closest to what you want). This could be better written simply as.. cfif len(variable) cfif #variable# IS #variable# /cfif This will not do much, since you're displaying the string if it IS empty. If you changed the operator to IS NOT or NEQ it would act just like the len() does above. I would presonally prefer using len() in this case. -Justin Scott, Lead Developer Sceiron Internet Services, Inc. http://www.sceiron.com __ Your ad could be here.

RE: if value exists, show it
I like using CF's short circuit logic (introduced in 4.5, I think?) like this: CFIF IsDefined(variable) AND Len(Variable) #variable# /CFIF Evaluation is sequential in the CFIF. This way, you only show the variable if it exists and is not empty. Something similar can be done with numbers: CFIF IsDefined(variable) AND IsNumeric(Variable) #variable# /CFIF Or make sure the number is not zero: CFIF IsDefined(variable) AND IsNumeric(Variable) AND Variable #variable# /CFIF Etc...
