I am in the process of building an application that lists several orders
on one table with various info to some other tables with other info
relating to these orders and access this via .asp. I receive updates to
some of these tables from our AS/400 in the form of comma separated text
files and the updates work fine. We now want to add a field to one of
the tables that will say when an invoice has been paid, a simple y or n
or whatever. What I can't seem to figure out is how to do this. I simply
want to add this y to a field that was left blank on the table when it
was initially entered, according to the the order numbers. The imported
file would have 3 columns, one listing order number one listing invoice
number and one with a y in it. Each of the invoice numbers would be
unique so they should have no problem matching these up to what is
already in there. I have searched for an answer and it seems to be "use
an update query" I have a book here and I still am lost as to how to
accomplish this. Can anyone make any suggestions or can you point me to
a downloadable database that does something like this so I can take a
look at it and figure it out?
Thanks,
Travis 1 2363
The invoice has been paid when the payments are equal to (or greater) than
the invoice amount. Why do you need a y/n field?

I imported records into a table, later found out that many of them had
trailing spaces in one of the fields. If I'd caught it sooner, I could have
trimmed the spaces before the import.
This wouldn't work (nothing changed):
UPDATE tblManuals SET tblManuals.PARTNUM = Trim();
Would someone please tell me how to do an update query that will trim the
spaces?

Hello,
I have created 3 functions to insert, update and delete an Access
database record. The Insert and the Delete code are working fine.
The update is not. I checked and my database has all the necessary
records in it when testing it. I get the error "No value given for one
or more required parameters." when I try to update the database.
Can you tell me what am I doing wrong?

Hello PHP programmers.
I had a brilliant idea on one of my pages that selects some data from
my mysql database.
I first set the page up to display some info and an image, just one
item, with a row of data, etc.
then I thought it would be nice to do a select, and perhaps an update
(the title of the image) on the same page.

So I'm knee deep in this import utility program, and am coming up with all

1st off. On a "Find Duplicates Query", does anyone have a good solution for

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
