During interactive usage with sqlplus, Oracle also supports an AUTOCOMMIT option. With this option set to ON each individual SQL statement is treated as a transaction an will be automatically commited right after it is executed. A user can change the AUTOCOMMIT option by typing
SET AUTOCOMMIT ON or
SET AUTOCOMMIT OFF

whereas by typing
SHOW ALL
a user can see the current setting for the option (including other ones).

This was taken from the website:

Hi JK,

It looks to me like you client is using SQL 2005, which isn't backwards compatible with SQL 2000.

is it possible to convert sql 2005 database to sql 2000 sp4

Just using the file you have, not as far as I know. If you had access to the database, I'm told that you could export the data from SQL 2005 and then import it into SQL 2000, but I haven't done this before and so I can't really tell you exactly how to go about it.

When MSAccess Readonly database with password is opened error 0xfffff88f "Not a valid password". Who knows why?

For open database *.mdb I use ADO-construction
try
{
hr = m_pConnection->Open(_bstr_t(lpstrConnection), _bstr_t(lpstrUserID),
_bstr_t(lpstrPassword), NULL);
return hr == S_OK;
}
catch(_com_error &e)
{
}
When mdb-file has not attribute "ReadOnly", Open returns S_OK.
But when I set this attribute, exception is generated with
ErrorNumber = 0x80004005 and NativeError = 0xfffff88f ("Not a valid password").
I don't undenstand why. Pls., explain me this situation.

And other question: what are error codes concerned with error password (for ODBC and SQL-Server)? Or in other words: How may I detected that in connection string invalid password for opened database?

Thanks

Can someone answer why the following isnt returning anything?

string strGetPeriodeSQL = String.Format("SELECT * FROM {0} WHERE SDate BETWEEN {1} AND {2} ORDER BY SDate", strTableName, dtStart.ToShortDateString(), dtEnd.ToShortDateString());

I left out the rest of the funktion, just the SQL part is here.

Are you saying strGetPeriodeSQL does not get populated?
Does the SQL string not execute?
Is no data returned from SQL?

I suspect the latter so:
Take the content of strGetPeriodeSQL to Management Studio and see what the results are.

If you get results then there is a problem with your connection.

Thanks for the answer. But I figured out what was wrong. Insted of converting to ShortDateString I needed to convert to ToOADate.

Sorry for the trouble.

or you can use this way:

<br />
string strGetPeriodeSQL = String.Format("SELECT * FROM {0} WHERE SDate BETWEEN {1} AND {2} ORDER BY SDate", strTableName, dtStart.ToString("yyyy.MM.dd"), dtEnd.ToString("yyyy.MM.dd")/*give yout date format*/);

Then how are you going to read the password once you need it? It would return ******, for each and every record in your database Frown | :(

What you are seeing on your screen isn't the same as what one would store in a database. You might want to consider encrypting[^] the string before you send it to a database. It would be preferable to store a hash-value based on the password; you'd calculate an unique number based on the string, and store that. Then, when the user logs in, you compare a new calculation with the number that you stored Smile | :)

hi guys,
i am developing an application which uses access mdb files as database.
untill now i used a connection to the files,
using the following code:

Public Class DBconnector


    Private _dbConnection As OleDbConnection
    Private _dbCommand As OleDbCommand
    Private _dbDataReader As OleDbDataReader
    Private _dbDataAdapter As OleDbDataAdapter
    Private _dbTransaction As OleDbTransaction
    'Private _dbADODBConnection As ADODB.


    Public Sub New(ByVal cs As String)

        _dbConnection = New OleDbConnection(cs)
        _dbCommand = _dbConnection.CreateCommand

    End Sub

where the connection string is:

"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" 
 & "Data Source=" & TextEditPath.Text

texteditpath is the file path and name.

recently i have encountered an error while trying to create a relationship using "ON DELETE CASCADE" in the constraint clause.

error mentioned theres a syntax error on the constraint clause and there was no real syntax error , after troling microsoft forums , they have told me i need to use ADO connection because this bug results cause of use in DAO ,
also i may add that when i execute the query in the imidiate debug widow of access 2007 it is executed with no errors , how ever when i execute it on the SQL design window of access 2007 i get the same error as i get in the .net frame work

my question is how do i establish an ADO connection to access MDB file
or how do i over come this bug ,
please help im stuck with this for a week now ,
thanks...

Something like this?

SELECT @t1 = @d1
SELECT TimeOnly = @t1

SQL (except int 2008) stores the data as a datetime type, this includes both the data and the time components. It is up to you to FORMAT the data to meet your needs as Ashfield pointed out. You will still be dealing with a datetime type.

SQL Insert Creates multiple records instead of just one

Hi there, I have created an insert statement to create a new record in a database. This is used from a task automation program and the client record is mapped using that so records ARE created on the correct client but i only want 1 record to be created, at the moment if a client has 10 quotes then it will insert 10 new quotes instead of just 1. My code is below:

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[ietsp_CreateDODQuotes]

@ContactID AS INT,
@TaxYear AS INT

AS

SELECT
@TaxYear = TaxProYear
FROM
FlightDeckTest.dbo.iet_TaxYears ty
WHERE
IsCurrent = 'T'

/** Add PTM DOD Quote **/
BEGIN
INSERT INTO FlightDeckTest.dbo.Lead
(
ContactID,
Owner,
Status,
EntitySubType,
ietCreateDate,
ietMumbaiStatus,
ietTaxAdmin,
ietTaxYear,
ietQuoteIncl,
ietQuoteExcl,
ietVAT,
ietProdServID,
ietProdServDesc,
ietPayMethod,
ietCardType,
ietCardHolder,
ietCardNumber,
ietAcctNo,
ietSortCode,
ietIssueNumber,
ietSecurityCode,
ietInstallments,
ietMonthRepay,
ietFinalWithIns,
ietFinalInstallment,
ietAcctName,
ietBankName
)

SELECT
l.ContactID,
l.Owner,
'AWAUTH',
l.entitySubType,
GETDATE(),
0,
l.ietTaxAdmin,
@TaxYear,
l.ietQuoteIncl + CONVERT(DECIMAL(7,2),176.25),
l.ietQuoteExcl,
l.ietVAT,
l.ietProdServID,
'PTM DOD - ie taxguard',
'INVTP',
l.ietCardType,
l.ietCardHolder,
l.ietCardNumber,
l.ietAcctNo,
l.ietSortCode,
l.ietIssueNumber,
l.ietSecurityCode,
l.ietInstallments,
l.ietMonthRepay,
l.ietFinalWithIns,
l.ietFinalInstallment,
l.ietAcctName,
l.ietBankName
FROM
FlightdeckTest.dbo.Lead l
INNER JOIN
FlightDeckTest.dbo.Contact c ON
l.ContactID = c.ContactID
WHERE
((l.ietProdServDesc LIKE '%PTM%' OR l.ietProdServDesc LIKE '%Tax Return%')) AND
(l.Status = 'ACT') AND
(l.ietTaxYear IN (SELECT TaxProYear FROM iet_TaxYears WHERE IsCurrent = 'T'))

END
GO

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

your not summing anything to only make one record. It will insert all the records that match your where clause so if it matches more then one will insert more then one record.

and please put your code into a code block it makes it easier to read!
