Author Migrating Access Program to ASP have problems with Yes/No Field
A P

2004-09-24, 3:55 am

I am planning to migrate my exisiting MS Access program that uses yes/no
fields (checkbox). Can ASP identifies checkbox field of ms access? I am
planning to use the same database and use msacess for report generation and
web browser for encoding to the database.

Hope you could help me.

The answer is yes.

When testing for 'yes' you would say

WHERE Field = 1

Or

WHERE Field = 'True'

I tried to access certain field with Yes/No data type from MS Access but IE
gave me an error message:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e07'
Data type mismatch in criteria expression.

What do I need to do?

It's hard to say without seeing what your query is, i.e.

Response.write sqlString
response.end

Try using:

where fieldname=true

instead of
where fieldname='true'
if that's what you were using.

The error was gone but I think the query cannot find what I'm looking for.

SELECT * FROM tblform WHERE Served = True

Note that Served field is a Yes/No MS Access Data Type.

You need to use the numeric representations of true/false:
SELECT * FROM tblform WHERE Served = -1
