ADO Display
The most common way to display data from a recordset,
is to display the data in an HTML table.
Display the Field Names and Field
Values
We have a database named "Northwind"
and we want to display the data from the "Customers"
table (remember to save the file with an .asp
extension):
<html>
<body>
<%
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open "c:/webdata/northwind.mdb"
set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
rs.Open "Select * from Customers", conn
do until rs.EOF
for each x in rs.Fields
Response.Write(x.name)
Response.Write(" = ")
Response.Write(x.value & "<br />")
next
Response.Write("<br />")
rs.MoveNext
loop
rs.close
conn.close
%>
</body>
</html>
|
Here is the result:
CustomerID = ALFKI
CompanyName = Alfreds Futterkiste
ContactName = Maria Anders
ContactTitle = Sales Representative
Address = Obere Str. 57
City = Berlin
PostalCode = 12209
Country = Germany
CustomerID = BERGS
CompanyName = Berglunds snabbköp
ContactName = Christina Berglund
ContactTitle = Order Administrator
Address = Berguvsvägen 8
City = Luleå
PostalCode = S-958 22
Country = Sweden
CustomerID = CENTC
CompanyName = Centro comercial Moctezuma
ContactName = Francisco Chang
ContactTitle = Marketing Manager
Address = Sierras de Granada 9993
City = México D.F.
PostalCode = 05022
Country = Mexico

Display the Field Names and Field
Values in an HTML Table
We can also display the data from
the "Customers" table inside an HTML table with the
following lines (remember to save the file with an
.asp extension):
<html>
<body>
<%
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open "c:/webdata/northwind.mdb"
set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
rs.Open "Select Companyname, Contactname from
Customers", conn
%>
<table border="1" width="100%">
<%do until rs.EOF%>
<tr>
<%for each x in rs.Fields%>
<td><%Response.Write(x.value)%></td>
<%next
rs.MoveNext%>
</tr>
<%loop
rs.close
conn.close
%>
</table>
</body>
</html>

Add Headers to the HTML Table
We want to add headers to the HTML
table to make it more readable (remember to save the
file with an .asp extension):
<html>
<body>
<%
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open "c:/webdata/northwind.mdb"
set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
sql="SELECT Companyname, Contactname FROM Customers"
rs.Open sql, conn
%>
<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
<%for each x in rs.Fields
response.write("<th>" & x.name & "</th>")
next%>
</tr>
<%do until rs.EOF%>
<tr>
<%for each x in rs.Fields%>
<td><%Response.Write(x.value)%></td>
<%next
rs.MoveNext%>
</tr>
<%loop
rs.close
conn.close
%>
</table>
</body>
