    I am playing around with browsers and streaming audios, and I am curious about rtsp-type link (www.rtsp.org - Real Time Streaming Protocol).

    Pulling out the first occurence of a four-digit number from a field

    Sorry if this is a very basic simple question for SQL gurus. So here's the problem: I have a large text field in a table "people" (field named "CV") and I want to pull out the first four digit number I find in this field and store it in another field called "year_born". The problem is that "CV"...

    Word to Access

    I've asked this question in "Access: Other Topics", but maybe this forum would've been more appropriate: It's a question about converting stuff from Word to Access. I've got a Word file with lines like: WWW XXX YYY, ZZZZZZZZZZZZ CR WWW XXX YYY, ZZZZZZZZZZZZ CR WWW XXX YYY, ZZZZZZZZZZZZ CR ...

    Sets operations (n,?,¬) and SQL

    I am sure it must be something rather simple, but I just can't think of it right now. I have two tables with usernames: t1 and t2. And I would like to be able to perform set operations on them: 1) t = t1 ? t2 (SELECT all those that are either in t1 or in t2, removing dupicates. Somehow I have...

    UNION's strange behavior

    When I run the following query: SELECT username FROM minsk1 UNION SELECT username FROM belarus1 Although it should not return repeated values according to the documentation (only DISTINCT ones), strangely enough, it returns dublicates, I get a query result that looks, for example, like this...

    must be something very easy...

    ...but I can't spot the mistake (did not program anything in JavaScript for more than 6 months, so I guess I forgot some syntax): <html> <head> <title>homepage text generator</title> <script> generatePromo() { document.pf.promo.value = &quot;test&quot;; } </script> </head> <body> ... <form...

    Override for base target

    I have a page which has hundreds of links which I would like to be opened in a new window, therefore I've added <base target=&quot;_blank&quot;> to the head. Unfortuantely, there are several links (inside the same document of the type #anchor_on_the_same_page) which I wish I could open in the...

    grabbing an HTML page from another webserver

    I've asked this question on ASP forum, but so far no one could answer it, and somebody told me to ask here. Although I think it's a bit off-topic here, I'll give it a shot: &quot;In VBScript/ASP how can I get an HTML page from another webserver and store it in a local ASP variable for further...

E.g. the ASP script will be on http://www.pravapis.org/ while the page I will be grabbing will be somewhere on http://www.livejournal.com/ How can this be done? I've searched...

    What's the best and simplest way in VBA to insert a menu item into an existing MS Access menu (and that should happen when you open the .MDB file). Thanks in advance! regards, rydel n23 http://pravapis.org/ http://rydel.net/

    hmmm... a &quot;non-breaking hyphen&quot;?

    A bit unsual question... Is there a non-breaking hyphen (or minus sign) that always sticks with the next word. E.g. I have a string in HTML file &quot;Belarus -Minsk&quot; and I want that &quot;minus&quot; always stick together with &quot;Minsk.&quot; How this can be achieved? I've looked...

    Quicksort - advanced question

    It seems quicksort does not suit very well for large arrays. I need to manipulate certain (very large) list of words and at the end to sort them all. It works for medim-size files, but for example now I have a file of 800KB or larger with circa 120,000 words or more, then my quicksort runs out...
