I'm currently working on a set of pages that forum members can use to auction items with other forum members. I'm setting it up so that you have to be a registered member in order to view/bid on items. If anyone is interested in combining efforts to work on this project let me know. When I’m done, I’ll post the MOD in the appropriate forum.

| This would be a very useful mod!! I have thought about doing working on something like it, but time is a huge issue. Any ideas on how long until it is ready for the public? |

At this point i only have it working for SQL server. the way i'm doing my SQL is SQL server specific as far as i know. I'm really not that good with SQL so if anyone has any suggestions i'm open to them. I'm doing this specifically for the CFO so he can auction off some assets to employees. We're using NT authentication here so i know it works well with that, but i'm not sure how it will work with db authentication. you can have a look at my work so far here: http://www.trevecca.edu/auction.zip there is no dbs file so you'll have to creat the tables and fields yourself. you can get a list of the tables and fields by looking at the sql string in the auction_display.asp file.

Just an idea, there is an excellent Access/asp Auction available for free on www.xcent.com , maybe this could be integrated with the forum?

| This is the program that was the base for the auction created by the ServerHacker member I referenced above. If you visit his site you will see the enhanced work done on the auction program to make it look more like ebay. |

Taking a quick look at the file, it appears you are not coding this completly for 3.4 as it is missing a few things like strTablePrefix conventions, and some different cell color/font variables...like strContrastFont...
In addition I think most of it will work in access but I know the date math will not. Snitz uses number strings that get converted back and forth to display and store dates and perform math functions. The GETDATE() function is SQL Server specific, where Access uses NOW() and
DATE(). If you use the Snitz functions as date strings: 2003020600000 for 2/6/2003 you then avoid the compatability problems. |

not sure if this was discussed, but I just got a message that serverhacker's site was shut down by the host.  |

That is a bad error - he is moving hosts and I guess this is the way they must greet you before your web address propogates. The message is ReddiHost, aren't they members here? Any way he was hosting himself on 256k DSL and he was getting to much traffic so he decided to move again:
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=41383
As for the current message, he may be parking the site there but will be using a new name for his forum web address, see the link above. |

Did anybody actually get anywhere with this?? I went to aerocon and dropped a PM really like his layout.... but this is something I would love to get setup personally.
Or is this a dead thread? |

| I don't think he had the time to really create the mod. Its a lot of work especially if you have been modifying your files without documentating your changes. It always easier if you create all new file code. In addition making the standalone files work, debug and support Alpha and Beta versions, support in the forums, not to mention a good readme file is often more time than many people can or are willing to donate for free. |

Has anyone ever gotten the www.xcent.com version of QuickAuction to work?? I am very interested in using it, but for some reason, it has a problem with this statement
Function CountItems(ID)
CountSQL = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS calcTotal FROM tblQAAuctions WHERE " & _
" aucAvailDate <= " & SQLDate(NOW) & _
" And aucEnded = " & SQLBool(False) & _
" And aucCategoryID = " & SQLVal(ID)
Set CountRS = gobjConnect.Execute(CountSQL)
If Not CountRS.Eof Then
CountItems = CountRS.Fields("calcTotal")
Else
CountItems = 0
End If
CountRS.Close
Set CountRS = Nothing
End Function
It gives a hard-to-diagnose responce when trying to make it work.
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e14'
Malformed GUID. in query expression 'aucAvailDate < {ts '2003-05-09 20:01:24' } And aucEnded = 'N' And aucCategoryID = 4'.
/db/market/QuickAuction.asp, line 50
