# Good God
So glad I don't have to sign in with my login all the time. It's too freakin' long. I noticed some of you here have absurdly long logins too. Sorry, just had a fight with me S.O. I feel like utter shite and am in great need of... chin scritchies. I am floofy after all...

First messageboard post!

Wootage!

# i spose technically it might be an SQL problem
it could be one of two things.
1)i screwed up my connection to the database, which doesn't seem to be it
2)my SQl INSERT INTO statement is screwed, as the debugger thing says.

I'll post it here anyway to see if anyone can see something obvious I cant:
(if this breaks teh board, i'm very sorry Cal)

strSQLQuery2 = "INSERT INTO Users " _
& "(Username, Password, EmailAddress, AccountStatus) " _
& "VALUES (@Username, @Password, @EmailAddress, @AccountStatus)"


It looks fine to me, and all the parameters and values and shit are typed right, i copy and pasted them in from the DB to be sure, so I think it's a problem with my DB connection some how.

# ugh
I don't understand SQL at all. I wish I did, but I just struggle through each time I want to use it. I've never learnt it properly

# Same here
You know what the real bitch is, i'm making a whole site based upon a bit of example code a friend did for me, and this is copied from a bit of code he's done which works fine but just with all the relevant variable bits changed.

they all vary slightly

I mean, i've got both pages here, his works, mine doesnt.
My best chance is to just hope he can give it a quick look before work tomorrow.

# do you have the right table name?
/silly question

just thought maybe you called your table something different
(, Thu 22 Apr 2004, 5:51, archived)
# Yep,
I've gone over it all plenty of times.
My current plan of action is leave it as is, and moveon to other bits of the site, which shouldn't cause such troubles *he prays*

But not even cheap rent could tempt me home.

there were 3 stealth pears that vanished in crackles of lightning.
I thought it was an excellent picture, yet no one commented on it, it had taken me ages too, i was really gutted.

I'm not sure I can afford the time to get my skills back. I really need to start working on my Master's project, or I won't be ready to graduate in August when my funding runs out

# Ahhh, I see
same with me and Flash at the moment, i got an idea or two for new animations, but not the time to get back in the swing of it and do them.
Anyway, tis nice to see you posting, even if it is only in a conversational format.

# oooo, I'm sorry
That happened to me once and it was kinda depressing thinking of all that stuff I'd made that I'd lost.
Luckily i found it all still existing on an old hard drive one day.
(, Thu 22 Apr 2004, 5:39, archived)
# it's got to be around somewhere
my thought is that i didn't label the cd and it's just one of the burnt ones that I can't tell what's on it.

Either that, or it's fallen behind the bookcase.

I'm sure I'll find it when I move in a few months
