"Simple Database Program" help!



Hello all:

I am attempting to use a database program that I downloaded from

http://www.thescripts.com/serverside...m/database.txt

with good success. I have already modified it heavily with good results. I am however stuck on something that I feel should have been built into it,
but for some reason wasn't. During the search routine of the script that searches the database for a match based on the entered query, there is no
subroutine to return all records. (aka entering the equivalent wildcard of *.* and having it return all records) ditto for the modify and delete
functions.
I've scoured it up, down and inside out, and I can see where the search and return results subroutines are, but the syntac gets a little bit
over my head at that point..I'm sure its simple, but I can't see it.

I've e-mailed the author on this, but no response.
Thankyou to anyone who can help me out.

You have a few options:

1) email the author again

2) write your own - this may be the best option, because a lot of the
script that you can download have been written by those with little or no
programming experience ... and even less experience with secure
programming (for example: does the script have taint checking enabled
('-T' on the first line).

3) pay someone else to do it for you - and make sure you get your money's
worth out of it ;-)
Thankyou to anyone who can help me out.


You're welcome.

I would argue that it is not. JET is a desktop DB engine. Sybase is a database Oracle is a database DB2 is a database. VB 6 is a front-end development tool. PowerBuilder is a front-end development tool. MS Access is a front end devlopment tool.

Is there a way I can set up Apache to put incoming emails into a folder as individual text files (MIME, text, or I guess it'd be cool if Apache has a module to throw it into a database like mySQL with header info already parsed) with no actual complicated mail server installed? I don't need POP3, IMAP, or even SMTP. The idea is that I'll then write a program myself (probably in c++ and running on a crontab) that parses the emails and if it finds...

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,...
