<Gooch> i had to write some classic asp today unfortuantely, but i couldnt get what i was trying to do to work. i wrote a query to select 13 offices then i did a loop like this
<Gooch> Do Until rs("Off").EOF
<Gooch> Response.Write(rsOff("
<Gooch> rsOff.MoveNext
<Gooch> Loop
<Gooch> actually the first line is wrong
<Gooch> Do Until rsOff.EOF
<@dev_null> you can't do that
<Gooch> what did i do wrong
<Gooch> i got the same office printing 13 times
<Gooch> instead of 13 different offices
<@dev_null> not since the lawsuit
<Gooch> what cant you do
<@dev_null> you can't loop like that any more
<Gooch> how do you loop then
<@dev_null> thank bill gates for that one
<Gooch> in classic asp
<Gooch> not .net
<@dev_null> you have to use the curly braces now
<@dev_null> yeah thats what I mean
<Gooch> where do you put those
<@dev_null> what version of mdac are you using?
<Gooch> im not sure
<Gooch> id have to look when i get to work
<@dev_null> find out
<Gooch> ok
<Gooch> i dont see why it wouldnt work though because this application has code in it from 10 years ago that still works
<@dev_null> yeah that is unchanged
<Gooch> you mean anyting new wont work?
<@dev_null> so anyway just find out what version of mdac you are on
<Gooch> ok
<Gooch> then what do i do
<@dev_null> then google that version of mdac and lawsait and the syntax will come up
<@dev_null> it is going to be with the curly braces
<@dev_null> its because the interpreter is different
<Gooch> where are the curly braces though
<@dev_null> i have not done any .net since the lawsuit so I am a little fuzzy in it
<Gooch> oh ok
<@dev_null> i went with lamp
<@dev_null> maybe one of these other guys will know the exact syntax
<Gooch> i'll look it up. thanks for the help
<@dev_null> but if you google your mdac version and the laswsuit it should come right up
<Gooch> ok cool
<@dev_null> glad to help
<@VP|bofh> who said tits?
<Gooch> ha
<@VP|bofh> what's he trying to do?
<@VP|bofh> don't tell me he is trying do until ... in asp
<@dev_null> yuah
<@VP|bofh> ok
<@VP|bofh> what version of the mdac?
<Gooch> im not sure of the version. i'll have to look tomorrow
<@VP|bofh> then you are not in a hurry
