 Posted: Fri Jan 05, 2007 12:00 pm Post subject: Manage recipients through web page instead of pagegate admin |
 |
|
1) Is there a way to save the recipients, carrier, groups, interface settings to a database table: So the paging system can be data driven.
2) What I am trying to do is to build a web page which will allow a manager to add or update recepient and group information. Is this possible? Currently the only way to add recipients and groups is through the pagegate admin and we want to allow managers to manage this remotely through a web page

The program is already data driven. All of the information, including Recipients, Carriers, Groups, and Interface settings, is included in the pagegate.mdb database file in the PageGate directory.

To tell you the truth, I can think of a few ways that it might be able to be done but I've never personally done this, nor do I know the code to do it. What you should be able to do, though, is use ASP pages that modify the PageGate database to insert, edit, or remove lines. You may even want to use a combination of ASP and C#. It's just a matter of modifying the appropriate table in the database with the correct information.

| Is there any way to save the settings to a SQL Server instead of an access db?

| Unfortunately, no. PageGate can only read the Microsoft Jet Engine database format. If you can find a way to translate from SQL into the Jet Engine format, that would work... but I don't know if that's pheasable or possible.

What are the guidelines/rules for inserting a recipient into the mdb? In other words what does the row need and what dependencies are there? What is the correct information to modify.
Thanks.
