MySQL and validation rule

2004-10-10 Thread Jonathan Jesse
As mentioned previously I am a MySQL newbie.  I have read most of the Paul
DuBois book and portions I have found relevant of the manual to help me out,
however I have not found an answer to this question, maybe it is not even
needed.

I have used MS Access a lot and one of the ways I use it is to track
hostname to username to ip address at work.  In the forms we have a
validation rule on the field ip address which allows only numbers in
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX format.  Is there such a way to do this in MySQL or would
that be on the application that I would use to open/insert/etc ?

Thanks in advance,

Jonathan

A small, very small sucess story

2004-10-07 Thread Jonathan Jesse
I know this is off topic, but I have been a lurker for awhile, quietly
listening or reading, and getting to learn more and more about this
wonderful tool.
I am a true mysql newbie, in fact a database newbie.  However I decided I
wanted to learn something new and differnet then my normal job as a Windows
network administrator.  So I started messing around with MySQL.
This is basically just a thank you note to everyone for letting me learn
from thier mistakes and thier questions on the list.  I have installed the
database on a server and am using it for some very simple tracking of
network objects, patches and host/ip.

So a big thank you to group, I know a lot of you don't get paid directly for
answers to the list... so go buy yourself a beer and give yourself a pat on
the bank

Thanks for letting me lurk and learn,

Jonathan

RE: Unable to download MySQL (fwd)

Because I have received off-list responses from different people, rather
than send the same response to everyone who responds to me off-list, my
response is below.

It appears that a problem lies in the web browser trying to open the
RPM, rather than downloading it, and, as it is trying to open the RPM,
and, incorrectly applying a real audio plugin (or trying to do that, in
the absence of such a plugin), I am unable to download the RPM.

I had tried to download the RPM using galeon, and I have also tried
using Mozilla, and neither appears to be given the option to save the
file to disk - both appear to be required to open the RPM.

I have tried different URL's, including trying the ftp URL at Oakland,
USA, and the Australian URL previously cited. I get the same problem -
instead of getting a dialogue box giving me the option of saving the
file to disk (and, in what path), the browser commences downloading the
file, to open rather than to save the file.

The thing is, that I right clicked on the link, to open in a new tab, as
I expected, as the link was a URL for a different web site than the web
site where I was, that the browser tab/window would open up at the URL,
rather than automatically commencing to open or download the file. As
the download had began when I went ot the tab that had opened, I had
assumed that the file was being downloaded to be saved on my disk, not
being downloaded to be opened.

It was not clear, that clicking on the link, would commence to open the
file rather than going to the URL to enable a person to download the
file to be saved to disk.

RE: How to create an Installation Package using VB.NET?

2004-07-13 Thread Jonathan Jesse
Don't know much about creating a package in VB.NET but why not just the
windows installer from the web page instead, its always worked piece of cake
on the windows boxes if worked with.  Can you call it from and then add in
some programming in VB to add the users?
