If you just need it to be unique, then tell the database that... most
databases have a mechanism to add a unique constraint to a value, which
will prevent you doing duplicate insertions. Of course, this is a
back-stop; you can also check this in advance and do something different
if that e-mail is already registered - but /how/ to do that depends on
the scenario, and you haven't told us what that is...

Hi The following script was taken from John Coggeshall's (PHP consultant) in his article on Zends site at http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/ev12apr.php // Get the email address to validate $email = $_POST // Use John Coggeshalls script to validate the email address if(!eregi("^+(\.+)*@+(\.+)*(\.{2,3})$", $email) { echo "The e-mail was not valid";

Hello everyone, I've read enough about email validation to know that the only real validation is having a user respond to a confirmation message you've sent them. However, I want to store the address temporarily, so I want to make sure what is entered is safe to work with. I have a basic understanding of regexps, so I could write one that checks for a simple format like: something followed by @ followed by something followed by .....

Hi guys, I would like to setup a validation rule for a database in microsoft access that restricts data entry so that a certain field can only be filled in if another field has a specific answer (that is selected via a drop down list). Example Field1 - options are "In" or "Out" Field2 - options are "Join" or "Not Joining"

I'm using the following code to send out email messages to a list of people in a database. My problem is that if I'm sending to 100 people and the 40th address is bad, it crashes on that one and doesn't run the rest. I want to log the one that crashed so I can display it to the user and then continue sending to the remaining people in the list. If an address is bad, the error occurs here: EmailMsg.To.Add(New MailAddress(RecipientEmail,...

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. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: 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,...
