It's a small-size restaurant. I'm doing my friend a favor, not getting paid for my time at all. It'll be a good learning experience for me. I've never setup a LAN. At work there are system admins who take care of setting up every thing for us, and actually we're not allowed to work on it. Do you have any detail instructions for setting a LAN and a WPA-protected wireless network? I think the free database and VB.NET will be fine to start with but... -
I didn't know there was established product out there. How much does it cost? Where can I get it? It'd be great if I don't have to write it from scratch. My close friend asked me to write it for him (for free). I don't mind helping....Leave a comment:

Jared, thanks for the response. Hmm... I'm wondering what's the learning curve for PHP and MySQL. I've never used them. I know Oracle well.
I agree with you about ASP, and another drawback with it is the codes are not shielded with users (that is, cannot generate binaries for implementing on user machine).
Since it's not a Web application, how can the program running in the computer at the front door communicate and...Leave a comment:

create an application
I'm thinking about creating an application for a restaurant. The application will take orders as takeout-customers come in and will notify the chef in the kitchen about the orders. This way there is no need to physically walk from the front to the kitchen to tell the chef about the orders. I don't want the application to be accessible on the Web because the orders are kind of private, if you will.
I'm debating about which database... -
I found a solution for it by using Response.Flush and that fixed the problem.
Thank you all for helping!Leave a comment:

Response.Buffer = TRUE
Response.AddHea der "Content-disposition", "attachment ; filename"
Response.Conten tType = "applicatio n/vnd.ms-excel"
I think I know where the problem is. When I commented out the AddHeader and ContentType lines to output to the browser instead of Excel, I get error:
Response object error 'ASP 0251 : 80004005'
Response Buffer Limit Exceeded...Leave a comment:

I try the .xlsx and get error:
"Excel cannot open the file 'List.xlsx' because the file format or file extension is not valid."
I also try the cache but that doesn't resolve the problem.Leave a comment:

Hi Nitin,
Do you mean to use cache object instead of hidden variables?Leave a comment:

The two .asp files/codes are long and contain some proprietary information that I'm not allowed to post their contens here. but here's a re-cap of the sequence of events:
1) page1.asp is rendered
2) user selects some fields from page1 and click the button
3) page1.asp invokes a javascript function which gets all of the selected fields and pass that to AnotherASPpage. I don't think the hidden1 variable that you set in page1.asp...Leave a comment:

Hi Jared,
I add your code to AnotherASPpage. asp and below is the result:
when the input is is OK:
hiddenId:
hiddenS1:
textBox1:
textBox2:
textBox3:
hiddenVar1: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 ,9,10,11,12,13, 14,15,16,17,18, 19,20,21,22
hiddenVar2:
hiddenVar3: 0
when the input is too long:
hiddenId:
hiddenS1:
textBox1:...Leave a comment:

Jared, thank you, that works but that doesn't fix the problem.
I thought may be the request string is too long and thus caused Excel report cannot be downloaded. After using 3 hidden variables and don't pass any parameter in the URL, I get the following message:
"Microsoft Office Excel cannot access the file There are several possible reasons:
• The file name or path does not exist.
• The file...Leave a comment:

Dr B,
Here's the sequence of events:
1) page1.asp is rendered
2) user selects some fields from page1 and click the button
3) page1.asp invokes a javascript function which gets all of the selected fields and pass that to AnotherASPpage. I don't think the hidden1 variable that you set in page1.asp can grab whatever the user has selected. That was why I used javascript function to grab it.
4) page1.asp redirects...Leave a comment:

Hi Dr B,
After user selects all the fields, there's need to have a way to tell the program to query the data and display the result in Excel. The button is a way to let the user do that. I don't know how to signal that differently.Leave a comment:

Pass a long parameter
I have an ASP page with a button and other things.
When the button is clicked, it executes a javascript function which does:
allFields1 represents all the fields in category 1 that user has selected....Code:document.Form1.method = 'post'; document.Form1.action = "AnotherASPpage.asp?p1=" + allFields1 + "&p2=" + allFields2 + "&p3=" + bVar; document.Form1.submit();
