Hi folks!
I am writing a page that selects all records with company names and then
updates the type of those records if they are the first 2000 records. The
database has a total of 13,000 records. When I run this on my server, it
takes a long time, and then times out.
My 1st questions is, how can I keep any script in general from timing out?
My 2nd question is - is my code efficient? I wouldn't think that it would
take so long for this process to run, but it only gets through about 1400
records before the timeout happens.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
adam
set conn = server.createObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.open Session("connection")
set rstemp = server.createobject("ADODB.Recordset")
SQL = "SELECT * FROM registrants WHERE company <> ''"
rstemp.open SQL, conn
do while not rstemp.eof
strCount= strCount+ 1
if strCount <= 2000 and strCount > 0 then
'Update Type
set typeUpdate= conn.execute("UPDATE registrants SET type= 1 WHERE
company = '" & rstemp("company") & "'")
end if
rstemp.moveNext
loop
conn.close
set conn = nothing
