Exception when trying to execute “REPLACE” against MS Access

Question

I\'m trying to execute an SQL query against a MS Access database containing a \"REPLACE\" function:

UPDATE MyTable 
   SET MyColumn = REPLACE(MyColumn, \'MyO         


        

Answer 1

Not sure if this is related to the problem you are having but I was having a problem running an update that contained a replace function in Access 2010 that would just return with no error - nothing. I was actually running it from OleDb in .NET and finally figured out I needed to set a registry key to turn off "Sandboxed Mode".

Hope that helps.
