Convert string to Query Object?
I CFquery, it's cached, and pass the query name to another file as a string. I can CFoutput the cached query using the string but can't use it for a recordcount because it's a type mismatch. How do I convert that query name-string back to a query name-queryobject so I can get that recordcount. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Clients Can't Login - IE8 Caching?
Sometimes people fail when they login to my site, even with the correct info. As I made my own log of success/fails I saw the attempts weren't even being logged. I had one user delete the temp file cache, in IE8, and it magically worked (and was properly logged...so now the login page actually loaded where before it didn't.). So what happened? Why did the login page not execute and the member automatically went to the failed login page? Is this just an IE thing?... What could I do on my CF side to make sure the login page executes? Thanks (for helping this novice... one day I'll be intermediate). Randy ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: Listserves vs. Message Boards
Find out *specifically* what your client wants (feature-wise), and then investigate the technology that best matches that. The client doesn't know...they want the pros/cons. They want it on the site,,,not a third-party like a Yahoo Group (which I think is a good idea as it's both a listserv and a message board)... they want to member to be able to login to their account and control it. Someone said with the listserv they get the info as it's posted, but I know when someone posts to my threads on Facebook I get instant notice of that. And with a message board doesn't anyone who joins new gets to see the history of all the discussions? I have a modest user's understanding of both but it seems the first hurdle is in-site solutions. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Listserves vs. Message Boards
Client has requested listserves be implemented on the CF site I created. 1) Are there off the shelf solutions available? 2) Should I steer them toward a message board instead? (more powerful? flexible?) (They would far prefer it be available in the site so a third-site site would be out. But then again why not frames? Bad idea?) ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: multipart/mixed? (cfmail, attachments, embedded image)
I've been working with my host (YoHost...Very receptive and helpful...5 stars), and have concluded there's something amiss with CFmail because when he sends me an email via post the content type comes (good) is mixed but with CFMAIL it's related...even when you explicitly specify mixed in cfmailpart. So thank you for those who took a look. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: input type=image onclick jscript
My guess is because it's an input with type image so it's just going to submit
instead of honor the onclick. Try onSubmit in the form tag.

Hi frnds,
How to call a javascript function on
tdinput type=Image src=/images/search.gif width=55

this function is not calling why?

Is it possible to use Rand() in a CFQUERY?
I'd like to ask a previous question in a different manner as it was suggested to me the way I originally phrased it wasn't clear. I'd like to use a rand() in a CFQUERY but get an error each and every time (is it even possible?). The Access database is being accessed through OLE if it matters. I want to do something like: select groupname, groupentry1, groupentry2, rand() as randcol from inventory order by randcol , groupname, groupentry1 DESC, groupentry2 DESC or perhaps? select rand(groupname) as randgroup, groupentry1, groupentry2 from inventory order by randgroup, groupentry1 DESC, groupentry2 DESC Right now I always get something like this (not random...each group output alphabetically) row1:Group A row2: a-1 row3: a-2 row4: a-3 row5: Group B row6: b-1 row7: b-2 row8: b-3 row9: Group C row10: c-1 row11: c-2 row12: c-3 I want the CFQUERY to randomize the groups, A, B, C; B C A, etc... so I can get: row1: Group B row2: b-1 row3: b-2 row4: b-3 row5: Group C row6: c-1 row7: c-2 row8: c-3 row9:Group A row10: a-1 row11: a-2 row12: a-3 I want it like this because this information is displayed over multiple pages and I pass the row number between the pages with a Next and Previous button. I hope this is clearer. Thank you, Randy M.

Re: RAND() SQL follow Up
I am dumbfounded how to use RAND() in a query statement. I have three columns for this example and I want the results randomly sorted by the invcode column. That is, to randomly display how the results are grouped. select invcode, price, years from inventory order by invcode, years DESC, price DESC I've tried the retrieve results in random order example in the mySQL book, page 188, but it says syntax error. select invcode, price, RAND() as ran, years from inventory I've also tried HAVING but no luck. This has to be simple but I just can't find the variant in the syntax. This is a MS Access DB connected by OLE. I also can't find any examples of the syntax in Access books (nor on the Allaire site). Thank you, Randy Zeitman Paul writes: My guess is that it's a MySQL special function. You might have to create your own version using CF. For example, CFSET STARTROW="#randrange(1,YourQuery.recordcount)# will pick a random row number out of your results (note that the row numbers go 1,2,3, etc, that is, they are not Table ID numbers). You save this in a list and repeat (not accepting results already selected) until you have selected RecordCount values. Shouldn't be too bad. best, paul Thank you but I don't think this works...it chooses specific rows while I need to choose random groups. Query Result: row1:Group A row2: a-1 row3: a-2 row4: a-3 row5: Group B row6: b-1 row7: b-2 row8: b-3 row9: Group C row10: c-1 row11: c-2 row12: c-3 I want the query to randomize the groups, A, B, C; B C A, etc...

Re: CF-Talk V1 #86
Kwang, Thank you for the quick reply! I would like to follow your advice but I don't know howI had the same error without the CreateODBCDate conversion tag and can find no docs on OLE date formats. Should I not be using CreateDate? .. You are using ODBC date formats for OLE DB, which does not support ODBC date formats. You must use the native DB syntax for dates... -- Signature..

Re: OLEDB CreateDate Problem - got it...
Apologies to Mr. Suh who did indeed answer the question by stating 'You must use the native DB syntax for dates...' So I am using Excel which I think is using the Jet driver and looked at my MySql book and simply wrote the date as the Date data type specified and ignored the CF tag. ( -MM-DD) The code below works. (I am noting it here for other novices like myself.) I believe I set the formatting of the excel date to General Date though I've not tried to see if it makes a difference. CFSET ye = 2000 CFSET mo = 06 CFSET da = 01 CFQUERY datasource="test1" NAME="datething" UPDATE testdate set aucdate = '#ye#-#mo#-#da#' where dID = 2 /CFQUERY Thanks, Randy -- Signature..

OLEDB CreateDate Problem
After spending some time on this I've decided to ask help of the list:
I was using the following to update my ODBC database without a hitch:
CFSET tmpDate = CreateDate(2000, 12, 24)
CFSET myDate = CreateODBCDate(tmpDate)
CFQUERY datasource="db1" NAME="updatedate"
UPDATE testdate
set aucdate = #myDate#
where dID = 1
/CFQUERY
But when I switched to OLE DB I get the following error - with or
without the CreateODBCDate statement.
..
Error Diagnostic Information
OLEDB Error Code = -524553244
Malformed GUID. in query expression '{d '2000-12-24'}'.
SQL = "UPDATE testdate set aucdate = {d '2000-12-24'} where dID = 1"
