Boolean request -> SQL statement

I need some way of converting a boolean-style request to an SQL statement. Here is an example (don't assume this will have anything to do with cars):

User inputs:
sunroof and four door not red

SQL statement created:
Select * From TblItems Where Description Like '%sunroof%' And Where Description Like '%four door%' And Where Description Not Like '%red%'

I'm well-versed in VB.
However, I do NOT know ASP, nor do I know SQL. This was just dumped in my lap.

Ideas, anyone?

This might Help You out.

The SQL statement you wrote looks fine all you need to do is get the information from the user into the statement The following is an example in two sections. The first is the HTML Form and the second the ASP Page.

Code:

---

<FORM action="carpage.asp" method="POST">
<INPUT type="checkBox" value="red" name="notcolor">not red<br>
<INPUT type="checkBox" value="fourdoor" name="door">four doors<BR>
<INPUT type="checkBox" value="sun" name="roof">Sun Roof<br>
<INPUT type=submit>
</FORM>

carpage.asp

Code:

---

Dim ObjCon
Dim objRec
Dim strSQL
Dim strCon
Dim Color
Dim Door
Dim roof

color = Request.Form("red")
Door = Request.Form("door")
roof = Request.Form("roof")

Set ObjCon = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set ObjRec = CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")

strCon = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=" & server.mappath("your database") ' This connection string is for Access only

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblitems"

If color = "red" Then
  strsql = strsql & " WHERE Description Not Like '%red%'"
End If
'Use the same If statment for the other requests

objcon.Open strCon
objRec.Open strSql,strCon
