ASP Features:
Basic Structures, like:
Select
If-Then
Do-While
For/Next
ADO Connection Assistant
Here's one of the best ASP or ASP.Net additions to hit an editor in a long time.
Automatically insert all the information for an ADO Connection with very Little work at all. Just insert your variable names for Connection, Recordset, DSN & SQL Select & Insert Statements. Then - for the best part of all - the SQL Select & Insert Statement Assistants - use your local database copy to easily assemble your SQL Select or Insert Statements!
SQL Builder Assistant
(works with MS Access AND SQL Server 7/2000)
Create complex SQL statements to use with your ADO connection - both SELECT (including Inner Join) & INSERT statements. All your tables & fields are automatically accessible from pull-down menus, along with all the variable names you created on the page!
Once you've done these short Steps, Voila - your ADO connection and your basic SQL statement is inserted and you didn't even break a sweat!
(For direct SQL Server utilization, SQL tools must be installed on your development computer, like Enterprise Mgr/Client Network Utility)
You can even choose to automatically insert the output in an HTML table or a Select List if you want!
Email Asstant
Easily create an ASP document using CDO to do your email jobs
Automatic FORM CODE GENERATOR
Choose your MS Access or SQL Server 7/200 database and table - ASP Express automatically generates the HTML for the input form!
Choose Between regular form format, or ASP.Net format!
