Results grouped and in row - 3/3/2007 11:21:18   
I'm going to need some help on this one. I setup an asp grade turn-in on our school's server. It works great. Students can upload their projects (jpg, gif, swf) and I have a rubric for evaluation. The students and parents can check work and grade at home. I owe a lot of you forum gurus thanks for helping on certain parts of this.
I wiil finally get to the point. When I enter the grades in our IGPro grade program it would be easier to have the grade results grouped and in a row to match the format of the grade program. Here's a link to demo. The top part is how it hopefully can look and the bottom part is the way it looks now. I used raw asp because I thought that it would be necessary to accomplish this task.
http://www.kenn.cr.k12.ia.us/deleteme3.html

This is the code I have now:
<% 
Dim connection, recordset
Dim sSQL, sConnString, sports, project, total




sSQL="SELECT * FROM filesquery order by nameInput Asc,order0 asc"

Set connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.connection") 
Set recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
sConnString="PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ 
"Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("../../fpdb/grade.mdb") 

Connection.Open sConnString

Recordset.Open sSQL, Connection
response.write "<table width='100%' border='1' cellpadding='10' bgcolor='F2F2F2' align='center'>"
response.write "<tr><td>" & "<table width='100%' border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'>" 
If Recordset.EOF Then
Response.Write "<tr><td>No records returned.</td></tr>"
Else
Do while Not recordset.eof
Response.Write "<tr><td align='center'>" & "<font face='arial' size='2'>" & recordset("nameInput") & " " & recordset("total")  & "</font>" & "</td>"  
Response.Write "<td>" & "<font face='arial' size='2'>" & recordset("project") & "</td></tr>"

recordset.MoveNext
loop

response.write "</td></tr></table>" & "</table>"
End if
recordset.Close
Set recordset = Nothing
connection.Close
Set connection = Nothing 
%>



Is it possible?

Definitely possiable....

For each <td> that you want to fill you will need something like this:

Response.Write(dbfield.value)

I find it really helpful to build the page using asp and html and writing the table in asp after you have it looking the way you want and ensuring your code is working for example:
<%
Dim connection

set connection=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
connection.ConnectionString="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
connection.open server.mappath("../../fpdb/grade.mdb")

Dim Recordset, sSQL

set Recordset= Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")

Recordset.Open "SELECT * FROM filesquery ORDER BY nameInput ", connection
sSQL = whatever additional parameters you need
%>
<table>
<tr>
<td style=font-family="arial" size="1em"><%Response.Write(project.value)</td>
</tr>
</table>

Just continue putting your asp in code blocks inside your html. Once it is working the way you want you can move it all into asp with Response.write

Hope this helps!

I'm not a good enough coder to fill in the gaps in your code. here's my futile attempt.
<html>

<head>


<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<title>Grade Form</title>
</head>

<body bgcolor="#000000">
<!--#include file="menu.asp"-->

<table border="1" width="500" bgcolor="#F2F2F2" align="center">
  <tr>
    <td  align="center" bgcolor="#000000" width="308"><font color="#FFFFFF" face="Arial"><b>Grade
      Book</b></font></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
<td>




   
<% 
Dim connection, recordset
Dim sSQL, sConnString, sports, project, total




sSQL="SELECT * FROM filesquery order by project Asc"

Set connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.connection") 
Set recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
sConnString="PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ 
"Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("../../fpdb/grade.mdb") 

Connection.Open sConnString

Recordset.Open sSQL, Connection
%>
<table> 
<tr> 
<td style=font-family="arial" size="1em"><%Response.Write(project.value)%></td> 
</tr> 
</table> 

<%


recordset.Close
Set recordset = Nothing
connection.Close
Set connection = Nothing 
%>




 



        
        
                
 





  
   </td>
   </tr>
   
</table>

</body>




I'm getting this error message which is one of many i could have gotten by hacking the code up as I did.
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'

Object required: ''

No problem we all start somewhere..:)

Ok let's start with a very basic html page and see if we can get the connection working right and pull records, after that we can look into styling the page....

<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 12.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<title>Grade Form</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#000000">
<% 
Dim connection
set connection=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") 
connection.ConnectionString="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
connection.open server.mappath("../../fpdb/grade.mdb") 

Dim Recordset
set Recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset") 
Recordset.Open "SELECT * FROM filesquery ORDER BY project Asc", connection

%>

<table bgcolor="white" border="1" style="width: 212px">
 <tr>
      <td>Grade Book</td>
 </tr>
    
    <tr>
<%do until Recordset.EOF%>
<%for each project in Recordset.Fields%>
    
      <td><%Response.Write(project.value)%> </td>
	
<%next
Recordset.MoveNext%>
   	  
   </tr>
<%loop%>
</table>

<%
recordset.Close
Set recordset = Nothing
connection.Close
Set connection = Nothing 
%>

</body>

</html>


See if that will give you a good connection and pulls records, and let me know.

What I need is to group it by student and run the scores and projects horizontally in adjacent rows.

That link asks for a password?

Is the above pulling records?

RE: Results grouped and in row - 3/4/2007 8:55:05   
Sorry about that. It was in a restricted folder. This should work
http://www.kenn.cr.k12.ia.us/test2.asp
Here's the whole picture on this section of the asp grade code. The link below is the beginning file. i'm passing a course (sport) and term (linkinput) and period (heading) variable to the file you are working on. I'm having a little trouble with the Where............criterion on that. Perhaps you are noting on a little over-my-head on this. At least if you get the code figured out I will have another tool.

RE: Results grouped and in row - 3/4/2007 10:42:20   
I would recommend an array via GetRows and I would use faux rows on the second row of data. The heading row would not be difficult, but the project name and score being on separate rows is problematic due to the way html tables are built. You would be asking the code to build one column of one row followed by a column of the next row and then going back to the first row to insert the next column and so on. Quite a challenge in my opinion. However, you could use two divs inside each column to make the project and score appear to be in different rows. This code is not tested, however, give it a try. You will need to add your own styling to the table and the divs.

<% 
Dim conntemp, myDSN, myRS, mySQL, arrRecord
Set conntemp=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") 
myDSN ="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.Mappath("../../fpdb/grade.mdb") 
conntemp.open myDSN 
mySQL = "SELECT project, nameInput, total FROM filesquery order by nameInput Asc,order0 asc" 
Set myRS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") 
myRS.Open mySQL, conntemp, 0, 1
arrRecords=myRS.GetRows
myRS.Close 
Set myRS = nothing 
conntemp.Close 
Set conntemp = nothing
%>   
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
table{border-collapse:collapse;}
th {border:1px solid #000000;padding:5px}
div{border:1px solid #000000;padding:5px}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<%
Header = ""
for i = 0 to Ubound(arrRecords,2)
If Header <> arrRecords(0,i) Then
Header=arrRecords(0,i)
Response.write("<tr><td>" & Header & "</td></tr><tr><td><div>" & arrRecords(1,i) & "</div><div>" & arrRecords(2,i) &"</div></td>")
Else
Response.write("<td><div>" & arrRecords(1,i) &"</div><div>"& arrRecords(2,i) & "</div></td>")
End If  
Next
%>
</tr>
</table> 
</body>
</html>

RE: Results grouped and in row - 3/4/2007 15:42:59   
I hadn't thought about the issue with writing to rows (I hate tables), divs would definetly resolve this.

Follow BetheBalls advice if that get's the records pulled in the right format I can absolutly help with the styling (divs and such) I am definetly much better at that (lol).

RE: Results grouped and in row - 3/4/2007 19:01:40   
It sounds as though it's a pretty complicated procedure to get it horizontal. Vertical will work.
http://www.kenn.cr.k12.ia.us/test3.asp
If you refer back to my last post, would we be able to incorporate a where criteria into the insert statement?
i'm passing a course (sport) and term (linkinput) and period (heading) variable to the file. This should bring up students from one course, term and period so I'm able to register their grades in the grade program. Also, is it big deal to group the results by name? If so, it doesn't matter.
This was my orginal goal.

RE: Results grouped and in row - 3/4/2007 23:23:49   
I think it's this.....

linkInput would be the term in your url, 2nd for example. TermField is your field in the DB that holds the term value 2nd, 1st, 4th whatever. Just make sure that what's being passed in your url matches whats in the DB.

Add this variable
Dim Sql

Define the Variable
Sql = Request.QueryString("linkInput")

Add the Variable to your WHERE clause
Recordset.Open "SELECT project,nameinput,total FROM filesquery WHERE TermField = "Sql" ORDER BY nameInput Asc,project Asc", connection

RE: Results grouped and in row - 3/5/2007 0:12:01   
You will need diffrent variable names i.e

Sql
Sql1
Sql2

Try
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<title>Grade Form</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#000000">

<% 

Dim Sql, Sql1, Sql2

Sql = Request.QueryString("sport")
Sql1 = Request.QueryString("linkInput")
Sql2 = Request.QueryString("heading")

Dim connection
set connection=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") 
connection.ConnectionString="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
connection.open server.mappath("fpdb/grade.mdb") 

Dim Recordset
set Recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset") 
Recordset.Open "SELECT project,nameinput,total FROM filesquery WHERE sport = "Sql" and linkInput = "Sql1" and heading = "Sql2" ORDER BY nameInput Asc,project Asc", connection
%>

<table bgcolor="white" border="1" style="width: 212px">
 <tr>
      <td>Project</td>
      <td>Name</td>
      <td>Grade</td>
 </tr>
    
    <tr>
<%do until Recordset.EOF%>
<%for each project in Recordset.Fields%>

    
      <td><%Response.Write(project.value)%> </td>

	
<%next
Recordset.MoveNext%>
   	  
   </tr>
<%loop%>
</table>

<%
recordset.Close
Set recordset = Nothing
connection.Close
Set connection = Nothing 
%>

</body>

</html>



Just to be sure...these are field names in your DB right?

sport
linkInput
heading

You have to escape quotes when inserting variables. The following will get rid of the errors.

Recordset.Open "SELECT project,nameinput,total FROM filesquery WHERE sport = " & Sql & " and linkInput = " & Sql1 & " and heading = " & Sql2 & " ORDER BY nameInput Asc, project Asc", connection

You guys do a great job and I've had a lot of help on many issues. I feel bad telling you the code doesn't work in this case. I removed the where criteria statement and it worked so it's in the where statement. Here's the link to the preceding page and the code. If you have time. maybe you can figure this out. thanks much.

RE: Results grouped and in row - 3/7/2007 1:03:10   
Not really sure it looks right and in the error it is pulling the querystring .....

Try just this as the WHERE clause
WHERE sport = " & Sql & " ORDER BY nameInput Asc, project Asc", connection

Let's see if the error is further in the clause....

If it's obvious, I am sure BetheBall will be along soon!
