Hi All
I am creating a database archiving tool,in which a user can delete all the data before a date he would specify.But the problem is i am not able to create a delete query which can delete a range of data.
I had created the following query
<%
pdt=request.form("prevdate") 'contains the date starting from which data has to be deleted
cdt=request.form("currdate") 'contains the date till which data has to be deleted
' declaring variables
' not neccesary but a good habit
Dim DataConn
Dim CmdDeleteRecord
Dim MYSQL
Set DataConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set CmdDeleteRecord = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
' The line below shows how to use a system DSN instead of a DNS-LESS connection
' DataConn.Open "DSN=System_DSN_Name"
DataConn.Open "DBQ=" & Server.Mappath("../fpdb/taxireq.mdb") & ";Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};"
MYSQL = "DELETE FROM Request_detail WHERE Repdate between '" & pdt &"' and '" & cdt &"'"
CmdDeleteRecord.Open MYSQL, DataConn
' closing objects and setting them to nothing
' not neccesary but a good habit
DataConn.Close
Set DataConn = Nothing
%>
please suggest any changes so that i can delete a range of data from the database
Thank You!!
