The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How can i update many records at once using Access and Cold Fusion

Asked by CoBrentwood in Cold Fusion Markup Language

Tags:

Hello,  I have been fighting this question for a week and thought maybe someone could help me out.  I have a form that inserts into a database and all is good. Now i am working on a page to edit this data.  I need to update 1 record in TABLE A and that works fine. But then in TABLE B i need to update several records at the same time. I am really not sure how to do this.  I will include my code that displays the page for edit and then the code for updating the database.

First off about the database:  Access 2003 with many tables but TABLE A has an auto number and a casenumber besides many other fields.  TABLE B has an auto number can a case_number to relate to TABLE A.

Here is the update code:
editcasenumber.cfm**************************************************************
<cfloop query="getData">
      <cfform name="osform" action="/logger/admin/update.cfm">
      <input name="case_number" type="hidden" value=<cfoutput>"#case_number#"</cfoutput> />
