Hi, I have an asp.net application that reports the "updateable query" error when I try to write something to the database. The permissions should be ok, but the error keeps coming back. When I tried to move the .mdb file to another folder, I got the message that it cannot be moved...

I have a Word file that my mom somehow managed to mess up. She was writing an article that was over 12 pages long, took a break, and when she came back it was all gone... except 3 pages. That's all I know and - since she's not exactly an expert user - there are millions of things she could have...

I'm considering upgrading my site from ASP to ASP.NET with MSDE. However, I don't see any hosting companies that specifically say they support MSDE. It's all either Access or SQL Server. Does that mean they typically don't support it or is it installed with .NET by default?

Hi, I have a problem with the chart control. I have two asp pages: one that lets users input data for a chart, the other to process it and create a gif graphic. One of the requirements is to show only three labels on X axis - first, middle and last - which I wanted to achieve by calculating...

I tried to log on today and saw a message saying that my user profile is corrupt. In the corner of that window was a countdown. When I clicked ok, I was informed that XP will create a temporary user profile and, after clicking ok and waiting for a long time, I managed to get in. System...

A site I'm working on is supposed to show different content for different browsers. The code I'm currently using works fine when viewed in Mozilla, IE or NN 6+. However, the display is messed up in NN 4. You can see the problem in action at http://www.rba.hinet.hr/ The problem is the middle...

I have a problem with Microsoft.XMLHTTP. I need to grab a page, encoded as "windows-1250", which works fine using XMLHTTP. The problem arises when I try to process the page: all Central European characters are scrambled, and one or two characters after the CE char in question sometimes...

How can I install PHP to run on Windows XP without conflicting with my ASP server? Somebody once told me there's a special way of handling it so that I can run both PHP and ASP on my computer.

There are two ways I can connect to an access database: using jet 4.0 or access .mdb drivers, as specified in the connection string. What's the difference?

I have 2 problems: 1. I have a web form that accepts data in a <textarea>. Carriage returns look just fine when I display the content in an Access form. Problems start when I pull that info from Access and display it on a webpage -- CRs don't show at all. What can I do? 2. I input data to the...
