Excuse me if this is old news, I had some run time problems using easy_odbc in conjunction with the MSaccess ODBC driver. The problems were to do with ODBC exception handling for the most part. I had a freind look at it and he came up with some suggestions for patches. Following is the output of a WINDIF compare of the original and patched versions of easy_odbc.cpp and test.cpp. The changes are a bit over my head but the original problems are well and truly fixed, thought this might be useful to someone. On a related subject, is there any way to insert the contents of a variable in line with an SQL query? Something like the following:
// fills a ResultSet with some data
easyodbc::ResultSet rslt = db.ExecuteQuery("SELECT * FROM kids" WHERE name =
MYVARIABLE);
Patch for easy_odbc.cpp:
long Database::Execute(const char* sql) {
try {
if(!this->m_bOpened) {
throw EasyODBCException("Call Open() before
Execute()",-1);
}
<! SQLRETURN ret = SQLPrepare(this->m_hStmt,(unsigned
char*)sql,
!> SQLFreeStmt(this->m_hStmt,SQL_CLOSE);
!> SQLRETURN ret = SQLAllocStmt(this->m_hDbc, &this->m_hStmt);
!> if(ret == SQL_ERROR || ret == SQL_INVALID_HANDLE || ret < 0)
{
!> HandleError("DBC");
!> }
!>
!> ret = SQLPrepare(this->m_hStmt,(unsigned char*)sql,
Patch for test.cpp:
// closes the database connection
db.Close();
<! }catch(easyodbc::EasyODBCException *ex) {
!> }catch(easyodbc::EasyODBCException ex) {
<! char buff[51];
<! ex->GetMessage(buff);
<! printf(buff);
!> char buff[2000] = {0};
!> ex.GetMessage(buff);
!> printf("%s\n", buff);
}
return 0;
}

I have a client server application (Powerbuilder) using Oracle database as the backend. My problem is how to connect to the same database from a remote location using the same application. I amusing ODBC for my connection currently. Kindly advice!

I have defined the following code:
BEGIN TRANSACTION TCQ11997
SELECT * INTO Q1_1997 FROM Orders_1997
WHERE OrderDate > '12/31/1996' AND OrderDate < '1/4/1997'
SAVE TRANSACTION TCQ
BEGIN TRANSACTION TCQ1View
SELECT * FROM Q1_1997
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION TCQ
COMMIT TRANSACTION
First transaction will create a CLONE table (it is guaranteed) to work. The work upto this point is saved in a SAVE POINT
called TCQ.
The second transaction will fail (I explicitly want this to fail - to simulate "real life" Error).
Now : i am curious running this code should Create the CLONE Table (named TCQ1997) because of the save point. But It doesn't. As a matter of fact, after running this code, SQL Enterprise Manager Crashes. What am I doing wrong here?

Hi, I'm running into a situation:
<br />
trx = conn.BeginTransaction();<br />
acc = AccBean.Load(acc_id, conn);<br />
request = RequestBean.Load(request_id, conn);<br />
<br />
if (acc.Balance >= request.Amount) {<br />
<br />
request.Status = Status.APPROVED;<br />
<br />
acc.Balance = acc.Balance - request.Amount;<br />
}<br />
trx.Commit();<br />
This works fine. But one of our DBA insisted on STEP 3 being done by UPDATE trigger - and the code became:
<br />
trx = conn.BeginTransaction();<br />
acc = AccBean.Load(acc_id, conn);<br />
request = RequestBean.Load(request_id, conn);<br />
<br />
if (acc.Balance >= request.Amount) {<br />
<br />
request.Status = Status.APPROVED;<br />
<br />
}<br />
trx.Commit();<br />
The problem is, the trigger is trying to update "acc", which is locked during the duration of the transaction. Is there anyway to get around this? Or is UPDATE TRIGGER a bad idea (TRIGGER isn't executed in the same transaction context)? What I found is that the UPDATE TRIGGER was just never fired.
I assume it was never fired because it's outside the transaction and was therefore blocked - correct me if I'm wrong. Under what context is TRIGGER being executed? However, I'm seeing conflicting information:
A trigger is part of the transaction started by the statement that fired it. Thus, if the trigger fails the firing statement fails and is rolled back.
If this is true, why the hell my UPDATE TRIGGER never updated "acc"??

Thanks in advance.

May be just a hint, try AFTER UPDATE trigger. I dont like to use triggers.

CREATE TRIGGER trg_mytriggger ON XXX FOR UPDATE
is same as
CREATE TRIGGER trg_mytriggger ON XXX FOR AFTER UPDATE
"AFTER" is DEFAULT.

hi Everyone,
I am using ADOMD.net and i am getting error Database 'foodmart 2000 does not exist.
whenever i use mdx sample i can connect to other machines.
But when i use dll of .net in a process it is giving error "Database 'foodmart 2000 does not exist." for only when i connect to remote machine. On local machine it works.
Even in an exe it works for remote machine also .But it does not work in Vc++ dll with .net dll(adomd.net functions exports).
i did not find any way to find out the reason.
please guide me .
thanks in advance.

Please excuse my ignorance but I'm new to T-SQL and am having a problem. I have a proc that I want to send three parameters too, but only have it search on the paramters if they are valid (above 0).
In the following example I am filtering on County, Town and Type. But only want to filter if the value of the parameter is included. So if they only pass in county, then thats all I want to filter on.
Any ideas?
<br />
CREATE PROCEDURE FeatureBusinessByTown @County int, @Town int, @Type int AS<br />
<br />
Select Top 5 BusinessID<br />
FROM SELECT TOP 5 fbisBusinessLookup.BusinessID<br />
FROM fbisBusinessLookup INNER JOIN<br />
DIRECTORY ON fbisBusinessLookup.BusinessID = directory.[id]<br />
WHERE <br />
<br />
IF (@county > 0) THEN "(fbisBusinessLookup.countyid = @County)"<br />
IF (@Town > 0) THEN " AND fbisBusinessLookup.TownID = @Town"<br />
IF (@Type>0) THEN " AND fbisBusinessLookup.TypeID = @Type"<br />
<br />
ORDER BY NEWID()) DERIVEDTBL<br />
GO<br />
Definitely a PEBCAK! (Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair)

You can do this with clever use of AND/OR clauses
Select Top 5 BusinessID
FROM SELECT TOP 5 fbisBusinessLookup.BusinessID
FROM fbisBusinessLookup INNER JOIN
DIRECTORY ON fbisBusinessLookup.BusinessID = directory.[id]
WHERE ((@country <= 0) OR (@country > 0 AND fbisBusinessLookup.countyid = @County))
AND ((@Town <= 0) OR (@Town > 0 AND fbisBusinessLookup.TownID = @Town))
AND ((@Type <= 0) OR (@Type > 0 AND fbisBusinessLookup.TypeID = @Type))
ORDER BY NEWID()) DERIVEDTBL
Note, the above doesn account for nulls in @country, @Town or @Type.
You can also declare a large enough varchar and concatenate a SQL command together then use EXEC(@sqlString) However, if you can do without that then I'd recommend it because there is a security risk in building a SQL command and executing it dynamically.
Does this help?

You can't use IF or CASE statements in a WHERE clause with SQL Server 2000.
I would follow the advice posted below and store the query contents in a varchar, @SQL_STATEMENT. When you get the the WHERE clause, you can concatenate the onto the WHERE clause your criterion. To get around having to include logic to decide wether to include 'AND', build the query with ... WHERE 1=1. Then concatenate 'AND X = @X' IF @X > 0.
After this, you can do an exec(@SQL_STATEMENT). I don't see anything wrong with this as the query optimizer will still be able to optimize the query. THe only thing you have to be careful of with these is that the calling code doesn't allow any SQL to make it into the dynamic stored proc. Asp.net will do this for you unless you turn it off. It's an @Page directive called ValidateRequest I think...
Good luck

Hello all,
I'm a newbie in C#. For testing I use access as database.
I have defined a dataset with a table. This table is used as datasource for my datagrid. On the table I have defined two eventhandlers for RowDeleted and RowChanged. Every time a row in the grid is added, deleted or changed the event is triggered.
In the Eventhandlers I create the Insert-, Update- and Delete-Commands for my DataAdapter and then I call the DataAdapter.Update(dataTable)-method.
The deletes and updates work fine. But Inserts have not an effect to the database. When I ask my dataset for Changes after an insert with(dataset.hasChanges()). I don't get any changes.
Can anybody help me with my problem?
Thanks in advance,
Frank

I have two tables : "tblCustomers" and "tblAddresses". Between these two tables there excists a one to many relation, based on the the field "CustomerId", which is a primary key in the table "tblCustomers" and a foreign key in the table "tblAddresses"
Both of them are loaded in a dataset "ds" when loading my Data Entry Form "Customers". The Entry form has besides the neccessary textboxes to enter the data for the table "tblCustomers" also a datagrid "grdAddresses" . This table must contain all the addresses from the customers. Some customers can have more then one addresses ( e.g. one home-address and two or more delivery-addresses.) There is a button "Addresses" on the form, when clicked, popup another data entry form, into which i must can enter the addresses for the current customer. Once a address is entered, these data must be shown in the datagrid "grdAddresses" on the main form "Customers". However, these datagrid may not display all the fields that excists in the table "tblAddresses".( e.g. "customerID" , because this data is already shown in the main form. I can't get it done to realize this.
It is possible if i make the following settings for the datagrid:
grdAddresses.Datasource = "tblAddresses", and then make the neccesary settings in the property window.
But in order to have a synchronisation between de data in the main form and the data in the datagrid i must have the following settings:
grdAddresses.DataSource : ds
grdAddresses.DataMember = "tblCustomers.tblAddresses"
With such a settings i can't make it done.
Can somehelp me ?,

I'm not exactly sure on this as I haven't done datagrid binding for some time.
You probably can create a DataView based on your DataSet which contains only specific columns you want, and then bind the grid to the DataView.
As far as I know, this will work for reading purposes only (not if you want to add a new record to the DataSet).
You'll have to edit the DataSet through code (which seems to be what you're doing) and once it's edited the changes will be reflected to the DataView and therefore the grid.
Does it help?

Hi All
I am going mental trying to insert some data from a webform thru ado.net by use of a sproc.
Heres my code:
dim sqlConn as new sqlConnection(data......)
dim sqlda as new sqldataadapter("storedprocedure", sqlconn)
dim sqlds as new dataset
sqlda.insertcommand.commandtype=commandtype.storedprocedure
sqlda.insertcommand.parameters.add("@EmpId", control.text)
sqlda.Insertcommand.executenonquery()
sqlconn.close()
---------------->
The code compiles with no errors I run the project seems like it does something but does not write to the database. I have verified the stored procedure works via query analyser so I tried google but amazingly there is not alot..
Please help me im in programmer hell..
Thanks

You do not need to use SqlDataAdapter if you are not updating your data through a DataSet.
Create an SqlCommand instead, specify the connection, the sql string, and the parameters.
Then execute the SqlCommand and you'll have your data updated.
Does that help?

In Microsoft Access there are so-called "Modules" that contain VBA code.
In the Microsoft Access application this is easy to do; simple click the "New" button and the module is created, launching the VBA-editor.
Now I want to add a new module to thousands of MDB files that are already shipped to our customers. (In my example: a simple function to enable Regular Expressions from whithin SQL queries).
For adding new tables, the task is simple: I add the CREATE TABLE SQL statments to my C++ app, deployed it to our customers and executed the SQL statments when they first start the application.
Question: Is anyone aware of a way to add new modules programmatically?
Thanks
Uwe

Note to myself: This was a stupid stupid stupid question. Because the "Modules" are only available from within a query when executing that query inside the Microsoft Access application.
Otherwise the modules are not available (i.e. when executing the query via ADO from your own application).
I do not delete the original question, because maybe it will help someone someday

Is there any way to query the Fiels name using T-Sql under SQA?
Note: DB base on SQL 2000
Thanks;)

using SQA type> EXEC sp_columns

Use INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS, for e.g.
Select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
Also, see INFORMATION_SCHEMA.* in BOL.

I am trying to run a query that sums up all the quantities in a table. Brief over view of how it works
1.) select all pertinant account ids into a temp table.
2.) select sum(quantity), fn_userFunc(account) from orders where account in temp table.
This produces the correct answer but it calls the fn_userFunc almost 100 times when I want it called once. Is there a way to run this in SQL without calling fn_userFunc every time. I can split the query into parts and combine the results but I wondered if there was a better way to do this.

By definition, UDFs are called for as many times as there are rows in your query. What exactly are you trying to compute in your UDF? If your function works on fields that are from 'orders' there is no luck.
