I've been away from ASP and ADO/DAO for several years and my books are in
storage in the next state ...

I'm trying to remember some sort of recordset code so that I can not utilize
the webbot database/form tool. What I want to do is display all fields from
a record (about 25 fields, but on average, only 13 are used), but I want to
skip null fields and write out a continuous result to a page that ONLY has
field data and text identifiers for the fields WITH data, and not a bunch of
wasted real estate.

Some how I need to fetch the field data, determine if it's null, then do an
If-then and place the field identifier text and field data on one line, or,
skip and move to the next field, and so on.

Make sense?

The database can be SQL or .mdb (and/or sharepoint), prefer SQL/non
sharepoint.

Thanks

Hi,

do while not rs.eof
for each oField in rs.fields
response.write oField.name & " = " & rs(oField.name) & "<br>"
next
rs.movenext
loop

Will read each record from the record set, enumerate the fields within that record set and display a line with field name and value.

HTH,

That would write all records and fields in the record set - including empty fields
To exclude the empty fields in each record, it would need to be modified to:

do while not rs.eof
for each oField in rs.fields
If Not IsEmpty(rs(oField.name)) Then
response.write oField.name & " = " & rs(oField.name) & "<br>"
End If
next
rs.movenext
loop

Note:
If there are actually fields w/ Null values the above will not catch them
If the fields really have Null values the test would be
If Not IsNull(rs(oField.name)) Then

Ooops, I forgot the conditional check being asked for.

Thanks for correcting it.
