Need Help Parsing Text
I have a text field that contains saved search criteria. The field is called CRITERIA. I need to take the criteria in the field and make a valid SQL query out of it. For example, I have a record in the table that has the following in the CRITERIA field: My string is: AUTHOR='GIESEMAN','SMITH', ABSTRACT='CAT','DOG','FISH' I want to find all the records that have either GIESEMAN or SMITH as the author AND where abstract contains either CAT, DOG or FISH.

Thanks. This table, unfortunately, is not set up for full-text indexing. (This is from a third-party app, not my own.) So I think I'm going to be forced into inefficiency with LIKE. I'm using MS SQL.

RE: At my new job
I have a similar question. (I'm about to date myself now.) Many years ago I worked on a Wang VS system. There was a utility called CREATE which would allow you to take just about any data file or files and pull specific columns and rows from it to create a new file. For example, if I had 2 files (A and B) I could say: Start with file A, column 5 for a length of 4, but only for the first 10 rows. Add to the end of that row from file B, starting at position 19, length of 12, for the first 10 rows. Then add the characters ABC at the end of the row for 10 rows. Now start on row 11, etc. All of this was in a great utility that was easy to use. Is there anything out there today which would do a similar task?

RE: CFGRID
I use to use it all the time. But there are a few problems I've encountered so I don't use it at all anymore. A few of the problems are: 1. CFGRID doesn't allow wrap around. This isn't a problem if your columns are very short. But it's difficult for users to manipulate data if they have to scroll within the column to see it. 2. CFGRID would not allow my DHTML menus to show up in front. So if there was a grid on the page, you couldn't see some parts of the menu. 3. When I upgraded to CF5, none of the grids wanted to work anymore. We had all kinds of Java issues. If I remember correctly, there are also issues with how dates and numbers can be formatted in the columns. All in all, I've gone to just using tables which provide a much nicer display for the user. The grids were a great way to get started. But as I've learned more about CF and coding in general, I've found that the grids were too limiting. It would be great if those limitations could be addressed in a future release.

OT: SQL Backup/Restore Question
Recently someone told me something about MS SQL backup/restore that I would like to verify. I haven't been able to find anything in any books or on the MS site to clarify. So I thought I'd ask here for either a direct answer or a place to go search. The Scenario: Backups are done every night at midnight. In between, backups of the transaction logs are done every two hours. The question: It's Thursday. I need to restore my database, but the most recent backup (e.g., Wed night) is corrupt. Can I go back to the previous backup (e.g. Tue night) and apply all of the transaction logs through Thursday? Or would I only be able to apply them up until the Wednesday night backup? I've been told that MS SQL won't let me apply transaction logs for (in this example) Thursday unless I started with the Wednesday night backup. I know Informix would allow me to apply all of the logs. We're about to switch to MS SQL and I want to be sure we set up the appropriate backup procedures. Any thoughts on how I could get to the bottom of this would be appreciated. Athelene Gieseman [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.

RE: CFREPORT and Error 500
I use Crystal 8.0 web page server. It's very easy to pass information from CF to the Crystal report. The following is an example of what I've done that has worked for me: cflocation url=http://kcweb/firmdaily/isweb/ISBudget/PO.rpt?Prompt0=#FindPO#; FindPO is the variable I'm sending from CF. It is the first Prompt variable in the report. If I were to send another, I'd add it to the end as Prompt1. E.g.: cflocation url=http://kcweb/firmdaily/isweb/ISBudget/PO.rpt?Prompt0=#FindPO#Prompt1=# TheOtherVariable# This has worked reliably for me. One word of caution though. I understand from someone on another list that version 8.5 requires a license for each person who runs a report off of the web page server. I haven't verified with Seagate. But if it's true, it would be way too expensive for us to use (with about 1000 users.) Maybe someone on this list can answer if they've used the latest version and if there is a licensing issue.

RE: local user time
And we appreciate that in many cases. However, the purpose of a listserv is to share questions and answers. Often someone will ask a question that I haven't even thought about. But the answer is still interesting to me as I'm always trying to learn all I can. In fact, this particular question is of interest to me too. Remember when your teachers use to tell you that if you had a question, chances are that someone else had the same question too? I guess I'd rather someone err on the side of sending too much to the list rather than sending too little.

RE: CFUPDATE giving me problems, please help...
I've had this happen using CFGRIDUPDATE before. In that case it required that I use the keyonly="Yes" option. What happens if you just create a cfquery and use sql to do the update? I recently gave up on CFUPDATE because I can't get it to save a date/time field with the time. I always forget until I'm testing the app and I can't match up the date/time field with something or other. I've also had other problems that I can't quite remember now. (My brain only has about 4K of RAM. I'm in serious need of an upgrade!) It's a shame the tag doesn't work for me because it would save me a lot of time to use CFUPDATE. Especially when I later add a field to the database. If you can update the record with SQL, it might help to figure out why CFUPDATE isn't working.

One thing to look for is columns that don't have single quotes around
them. If you input an #Inv_Amount# with a comma in it, like 1,000.00,
it will think that is 2 fields, because of the comma. Try using:
#rereplace(Inv_Amount, "[^0-9\.]+", "", "ALL")#
Or even just:
#replace(Inv_Amount, ",", "", "ALL")#

Time Stamp on CFMAIL email
I'm a bit confused as to where the time stamp comes from in the header of the email when sending an email via CFMAIL. We have a help desk database that emails our users when their call is entered into the database. The email includes, in the text, the date/time of the call (a field in the database itself.) That text is correct. However, the header of the email indicates that it happened about 11 hours earlier. I tried telling the users that we are just so good that we actually anticipate and close their calls before they even think to report the problem. Unfortunately, they're not buying it. I've checked the date/time on the CF Server, Exchange server and the help desk technicians PC. All check out fine. I also checked the time zone on each. Again, all looks fine.

RE: Anyone using Crystal Reports 8 successfully?!
I just recently worked through this one (with some help from this list!) You'll want to install the CR Web Component Server. Once you have that up on your web server, you can just use a URL to display the report in the browser. From there the user can print it. I'm still having a problem with the refresh though. I've used a datasource in the report. And this works fine as long as I save the data in the report. But if the user clicks on the CR refresh button in the browser, they are prompted for an ID and password. No matter what ID and password I use there, I can't get the report to redisplay. I called Seagate about a week ago to try to figure out how to get around it. After being on hold for over 1/2 hour I accidentally disconnected the line. I haven't had the time to call back and wait again. But I don't think this should be hard to fix.

RE: Newbie Question - Creating Data Source for CSV text file
If your server is NT you can create an ODBC connection using the Microsoft Text Driver (txt and csv). I've experimented with it just a bit and it seems to work on very simple things. I would think that you'd want to weigh how many steps you want to take manipulating and moving data. If the csv driver works consistently, it might make things simpler. On the other hand, if the data is in a database, you have a lot more flexibility. If you don't need that flexibility, having fewer places where a breakdown could occur might be preferable. I know that we have a few processes where we extract information from an Informix database on Unix, have that data FTP'd to an NT Server, then another process runs on the NT server to import the data. Should be fine in a perfect world. But I don't live there! So occasionally some part of that process doesn't automatically run and the update doesn't happen. We're working on getting to the point where the NT application can be updated directly from the Informix database. Less places to break. Another consideration might be the long term plan for the current system. If it's not ODBC, will it be down the road? I would think that the vendor of the product would be moving in that direction. If so, a simple solution might be fine. In that case I'd give the ODBC data source a try. By the way, I usually just create my ODBC data sources right from the control panel. So I'm not sure if you get all of those same options using the CF Administrator. But if you don't, you should be able to just create it from ODBC32 under the Control Panel.

RE: Multiple value Select
No luck. I think there's a problem in that the listcontains isn't finding any matches. I can't figure out why. I display the previously selected items in another part of the form and it is identical to the options in the database. There is a comma separating the selected items. For example, the record viewed via SQL shows: "Agribusiness,Commercial Litigation" (less the quotes) in the field. Both of those practice groups are identically listed in the GetPG.PG list. Yet neither of them are showing up selected in the control.

The code for my select follows: (Note that ViewGrid is a grid from which the user previously selected this record. I've also tried doing this from a query with the same result - nothing is selected.) cfselect name="FinanceType" size="2" selected="#ViewGrid.FinanceType#" multiple option value="Single Family Housing"Single Family Housing/option option value="501(c)(3)"501(c)(3)/option option value="Hospital Revenue"Hospital Revenue/option option value="Leasehold Revenue"Leasehold Revenue/option option value="Multifamily Housing"Multifamily Housing/option option value="General Obligation"General Obligation/option option value="NID"NID/option option value="Special Obligation"Special Obligation/option option value="Industrial Development"Industrial Development/option option value="TIF"TIF/option option value="TDD/TC"TDD/TC/option option value="Other"Other/option /cfselect -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.
RE: Hour Format
One way I've done this is to setup my select statement in my query to select the field as an alias name and format that through the SQL. Then, when you refer to the alias in the grid it will appear in the format you want. For example: SELECT *, DATEPART(hh, OLDTIMEHOUR) + ':' + DATEPART(mi, OLDTIMEMIN) AS NEWTIME Then use NEWTIME in your grid. p.s. I use MS SQL 7.0. You'd may need to modify this for another database.

Newbie Question
I've developed a few CF apps recently. Unfortunately, I work in an industry that still loves paper (law). So I need to be able to give my users print reports. I put Crystal Reports on my server and have developed several reports. And I tried using the CFREPORT tag with no luck. Looking through the Allaire forum it looks like that never will. What do most of you do to provide on-the-fly reporting? Is there another product that will do this? Or am I doing something wrong with what I have?

RE: Lawyers...
I'd be happy to discuss this with you. I'm the Director of Info. Services for a law firm. I've put up two intranets using CF to drive some of the apps. There are a number of questions that you need to answer before you jump in. For example: 1) How large is the firm (number of attorneys?) 2) Which document manager do they use? (PCDOCS, iManage, Worlddox, other?) I've worked for law firms for about 17 years. (I usually tell folks that I just don't know any better!) And I've learned that this environment is very different from the corporate world. If you'd like to contact me directly, please feel free.

I have an opportunity to do an intranet for a law firm that is operating two regional offices on the Novell Border Manager platform. They use Word Perfect and some other Document Management solution. Search, Document Management and Workflow are important to them. They've tried a Lotus Notes solution on an NT platform and are dissatisfied - with Notes - likely due to development costs. Their Admin has 'heard about' Cold Fusion and has expressed an interest in Cold Fusion as a solution. What do I say? How do I sell a Cold Fusion solution in this scenario? Obviously I must ask, "are there any CFML 'Intranet in a Box' applications that may be appropriate or other custom solutions for law firms I could sell and support with a development partner"? The project is in Milwaukee and extends to the Madison office, both of course in Wisconsin. %= Clinton Gallagher http://home.att.net/~csgallagher/ http://www.metromilwaukee.com/ -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body. -- Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.
RE: CFTree
I've had this problem before with both the CFTree and CFGrid. It happened when I moved my site to a Win2K server. The problem was in how my IIS was setup to recognize the default server. Apparently, one of those settings let's CF know where to find the directory where those things are stored. Frankly, I did a lot of poking around in the IIS manager and just double-checked all of the port and IP settings. That did the trick.

Doyle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 13, 2000 1:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: CFTree Has anyone used this tag much? I'm trying to use it to create an easily navigatable lsit of categories and subcategories that will pop up in a window and populate a select list. I have the same thing up and running with javascript instead of CF but I need to make it dynamically created by a query (or multiple queries) and CFTree seemed like an easy way to do that. I copied an example tree from the WACK and uploaded it just to get a feel for it. However I'm the only one that can view it for some reason. I sent the link o one of my coworkers and all he gets is the grey rectangle. Sent it to another co-worker with the same results. When we looked at the diagnostic information for the page it said that the applet could not be found. I tried enablecab but that didn't work. Has anyone run into/overcome this problem?
