Hi ,

In ASP how to deactivate few fields while inserting a record to the database(access ).


i want to insert a record.e.g having 5 fields.it is not reqired to fill all the fields in a form as per my condition.upon first filed selection(drop down) remaining field should show or deactivate how to doooooooooooooo ooooo?

As per the dropdown selection we shoud control the text boxes in the form.same time which ever text box in visible those data only we required to take it to database..

Dear,
thanks for your reply.

I am aware of update statement my question is not that.update is backend process.what i required is in order to get the input value itself i want to make visible of the fileds in the form.

those fields suppost to me auotmatic of their visiblity as per the list box selection.

e.g i have one list box and 10 text boxes in the form.Generally all text boxes are visible.

as per the drop down selection i want to deactivate few fields those inputs are not necessary to fill.

i don't want to defaultly deavtivate the text boxes.depends on the selection sometimes 1 and 6th.or some time 7th and 8th like that.


u got it.still more explanation needed
