adodb

I have an SQL database and want to connect to it using VBA in order to support some legacy functionality. I'm using an ADODB connection and need to know what my database DSN is. How can I find this? I'm using SQL Server 2008, thanks! :D A DSN is an indirect way of referring to the database. You have to create them manually (or semi-automatically using a wizard of some kind). Go to ControlPanel->AdministrativeTools->DataSources (ODBC) to see if one has already been defined for the database to which you want to connect. But I think you might mean "connection string", not "DSN". There are many,

Can someone help me reformat/correctly format a delimited text file using VBScript? I have a text file that is ^ delimited as below: AGREE^NAME^ADD1^ADD2^ADD3^ADD4^PCODE^BAL^ARREARS 00010004000051162^MISS JENNIFER GRAY ^123 FAKE STREET ^ ^TOWN ^COUNTY ^POSTCODE ^ 004978.00^ 000188.72 All of the data contains leading and trailing spaces that need to be removed. I only have VBScript available to do this. I have tried to use ADO GetStrings but it has yielded inconsistent results because of the leading and trailing spaces. Can anyone offer any suggestions or alternatives? Thanks Ekkehard.Horner

I have searched on here and google but I still cannot solve my issue. I am trying to use an excel's named range equivalently in my .vbs file. The below works in VBA in excel but I cannot get it to work in a *.vbs file. ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Range("A1:B" & Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Name = "DATA" strSql = "SELECT * FROM DATA" So, I have tried different variations of referencing to my named range DATA with no luck. This is what I have now: Set rng = ws.Range("A1:B2") rng = "DATA" strSql = "SELECT * FROM DATA" Some different variations involved: taking parameter ByVal, using rng

I have some triggers on various tables that use raiserror to tell the user that he tried to do something bad. I would like to run several inserts and updates atomically, rolling back if one of the triggers says so. I was evil in a former life so I'm using Access VBA. If the first statement is at fault, I get a run time error in my VBA. However if the second or subsequent statement calls raiserror then I can't see any error message. SOLUTION: examine the connection.Errors collection. This is an Access 2007 ADP front-end and a SQL 2005 database. The VBA below is the bare minimum to show the

I have a simple form, a query and a report in Access 2003. I have to manipulate the results from the query in a recordset using VBA and then pass it on to the report as its RecordSource. If I declare the recordset as RecordSet and use its Name property as the RecordSource of the report then it is working. However, because I need to edit the recordset, I though it would be easier to use an ADODB RecordSet as below. The records set is declared as Dim rs As ADODB.RecordSet in a global module. The rest of the code is; Dim db As Database Set db = CurrentDb Dim con As ADODB.Connection Set con =

I found this error looking for a solution to a problem of retrieving XML at ASP classic: Declaring XML output parameters with ADODB in ASP Classic I have the same error working with Classic ASP and SQL Server 2003. I used to work with a .dll in VB6, where I could get the XML code. But now I need to do it from SQL direct to ASP. Did you manage to solve it? My code in classic ASP so far is: set objCommandoOP = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command") Set objCommandoOP.ActiveConnection = objConexion objCommandoOP.CommandType = adcmdStoredProc objCommandoOP.CommandText="spProducesXML" set ParamEnt =
