It's a bit unclear to me, did it work in 6.34 or not? Since in 6.34 there is no different query for MSSQL the problem shouldn't occur there.

Btw. because I don't have SQL server I can't check what I'm saying here Wink

it worked fine on 6.34 on SQL

then I installed V 7.01 (fresh install) on SQL

doesnt work.

I was thinking the code would be the same too. its just that it seems lots of people have the same problem maybe there was actually a problem somewhere, or at least a work around!

Cheers

I used 6.34 (access 2000) for awhile and loved it. I just upgraded to SQL 7.1 with a new clean database, spent 2 days building 33 forums with 8 User groups, set permissions for each and NOW I find that the Active Topics does not work and it seems that no one can fix it.

I have read every post I can find on this subject (about 2 hours worth of reading), and done everything suggested. The only thing I can do is call my web host and have them check their LCID setting. If that does not work, has there been new developments on this issue?

Check the LCID number with your host and change it in the active_topics.asp file.

I have to do this on this site to get it to work on this server also.

My web host does not have a LCID setting. They do have a time zone setting which is set correctly.

We have isolated the problem to be within the code.

When a forum is set to All user access, the active topics works perfectly. When the forum is set to private groups it does not, since it works with one forum setting, it can be concluded that the server is set correctly.

This is a problem with the Forum itself.

I will have to hack out the active topic option.

OK, I have setup an access version and the active topics works fine. I need advice. My forum is not a heavily used forum. Maybe a few hundred members with only 50 or so that post on any regular basis. What are the advantages of SQL over Access? Should I use the access version to use active topics or will I regret it later. I have the SQL version all ready to go.
