calling Access Report from ASP
|
|
Hi guys,
I am trying to use ASP (vbscript) to bring out Access genereated reports dynamically. The query for the report works fine since the report runs perfectly in Access.
query looks somethin like this..
Code:
sSQL = " SELECT weekendingEmp.WeekEnding, " & _
" weekendingEmp.EmployeeID, " & _
" Employees.EmployeeName, " & _
" Sum(Hours.Hours) AS SumOfHours, " & _
" Employees.BaseWeekHours, " & _
" Employees.Current " & _
" FROM (weekendingEmp LEFT JOIN Hours ON (weekendingEmp.EmployeeID = Hours.EmployeeID) " & _
" AND (weekendingEmp.WeekEnding = Hours.WeekEnding)) " & _
" INNER JOIN Employees ON weekendingEmp.EmployeeID = Employees.EmployeeID " & _
" GROUP BY weekendingEmp.WeekEnding, " & _
" weekendingEmp.EmployeeID, " & _
" Employees.EmployeeName, " & _
" Employees.BaseWeekHours, " & _
" Employees.Current "& _
" HAVING ((..some condition..) AND (Sum(Hours.Hours)<[BaseWeekHours]) AND ((Employees.Current) = True)) " & _
" ORDER BY weekendingEmp.WeekEnding DESC; "
Interesting thing is, if i take out (Employees.Current = True) statement, i can actually see the report on my asp page..
but if i keep that statment, i get: "HTTP 404 - File not found" error.. i want to keep that statement because the report is only interested in employees who are currently employeed..
anybody know wut's wrong?
any help will be greatly appreciated..
thanks

Try replacing true with On or 1. Access has some fields that don't map very well to standard data types using ado/oledb/odbc

I can't help but wonder if the problem lies somewhere else. Do you want to include the entire page script??

sure.. i hope this can help..
Code:
Dim sRpt, sPath, sXML, sXSL, sRedirectTo
Dim sMDB, sAppName, objAcc, objQry, sQry, sSQL
Dim dteStart, dteEnd, sFormat, iFrmt, sMsg
Const fmtASP = 4
Const fmtHTM = 0
Const acExpRpt = 3
Const acUTF8 = 0
' Set the name of the Access XP report and fmt file
sRpt = Request("Report")
' If missing, run Report
If sRpt = "" Then sRpt = "Report"
sFormat = Request("Format")
If sFormat = "" Then sFormat = "asp"
' Assume that Access XP database file is in the same
' web folder as the ASP page. Determine the path
' and use it to set the XML and XSL file names.
sMDB = Server.MapPath("/test/Time_Track2002.mdb")
Response.Write "Database: '" & sMDB & "'"
' Response.End
sPath = Left(sMDB, Len(sMDB) - Len("Time_Track2002.mdb"))
sXML = sPath & sRpt & ".xml"
sXSL = sPath & sRpt & ".xsl"
' Create Access XP Application Object and open it.
sAppName = "Access.Application.10"
Set objAcc = Server.CreateObject(sAppName)
objAcc.OpenCurrentDatabase sMDB
sSQL = " SELECT weekendingEmp.WeekEnding, " & _
" weekendingEmp.EmployeeID, " & _
" Employees.EmployeeName, " & _
" Sum(Hours.Hours) AS SumOfHours, " & _
" Employees.BaseWeekHours, " & _
" Employees.Current " & _
" FROM (weekendingEmp LEFT JOIN Hours ON (weekendingEmp.EmployeeID = Hours.EmployeeID) " & _
" AND (weekendingEmp.WeekEnding = Hours.WeekEnding)) " & _
" INNER JOIN Employees ON weekendingEmp.EmployeeID = Employees.EmployeeID " & _
" GROUP BY weekendingEmp.WeekEnding, " & _
" weekendingEmp.EmployeeID, " & _
" Employees.EmployeeName, " & _
" Employees.BaseWeekHours, " & _
" Employees.Current "& _
" HAVING (((weekendingEmp.WeekEnding)>DateAdd(""ww"",-30,Now())) AND ((Sum(Hours.Hours))<[BaseWeekHours] Or (Sum(Hours.Hours)) Is Null) AND ((Employees.Current) = On)) " & _
" ORDER BY weekendingEmp.WeekEnding DESC; "
sQry = "TimesheetQryIntranet"
Set objQry = objAcc.DBEngine(0)(0).QueryDefs(sQry)
objQry.SQL = sSQL
Set objQry = Nothing
sRedirectTo = sRpt & ".asp"
iFrmt = fmtASP
objAcc.ExportXML acExpRpt,sRpt,sXML,,sXSL,,,iFrmt
objAcc.CloseCurrentDatabase
objAcc.Quit
Set objAcc = Nothing
Response.Redirect sRedirectTo

Having a bit more detailed read of the code I can see what you are doing now and it makes a bit more sense...
Basically your 404 is because there are no results returned to export and thus no page is created....
I'm not sure why it is not returning any data when you remove that where clause though. All I could suggest is possibly changing it to 'True' or true or some other variation.
You might want to make another post with a different title and seem is you get a better response... something like checking true/false columns in Access.

Hey sup,
i figured out wut the problem was... u see.. it didn't like "Current" field name because "Current" is actually a key name and is a function...
so after putting square brackets.. like: [Current] solved the problem..
