I have a strange situation. I have a stored procedure that is hanging upon
execution, but only some machines and not others. The db is an Access 2000
MDB using ODBC linked tables and a SQL 7 back end. The sp is executed as a
pass-through.
The sp is fairly simple:
UPDATE CUSTOMER
SET LastMergeName = [M].[Name]
FROM (CUSTOMER C INNER JOIN MergeItems I ON C.[Index] = I.[Index])
INNER JOIN Merges M ON I.MergeID = M.MergeID
WHERE M.MergeID=@Merg eID
On the machines where this hangs, it only hangs when a form which is bound
to the Merges table is open. That form has a subform which is bound to a
query made up of the MergeItems and Customer tables. The subform appears to
be causing the sp to hang when it is open -- but, again, only on certain
computers.
Looking at the situation in Enterprise Manager, it shows two processes of
interest: one a Select statement, and the other an Update statement, with
the Select statement process blocking the Update statement process.
MergeItems is listed under "Locks / Object".
The data in the form is not in an edited state when the sp is run, so
there's no reason it should be locking the table. And, on my development PC
and on one at the client's site I was able to test it on, it runs fine, even
with the form open. But on two others (one Win 98 machine and one Win XP
machine) it hangs when the form is open.
Any ideas?
Thanks. 2 1477
I guess the potential to edit is ...
Try setting the "Record Locks" Property of the SourceObject of the Subform
to No Locks.
If sp hangs, try looking at the Current Activities in EM and identify the
blocking connection and the action of the blocking conection.

Seems like some clients are able to get the result set from Merges
in one go with a client-side cursor, whereas others use a server cursor.
I vaguely recall that there is some threashold in Access around 450
items that can cause this behaviour.
All and all, it seems to mainly be an Access issue. You must somehow
get Access to get all items for the subform to avoid blocking. How you
can to that with linked tables, I have no idea, as I don't know Access.

Hi,
It's pretty unhelpful to post "I have a huge piece of code that
crashes in strange places, what's the problem?" but that's basically
my problem and I really am at my wit's end.
The piece of code in question always crashes in an STL operation
such as a vector.push_back, but the location of the crash changes as I
change how various parts are handled in memory, i.e., make some things
dynamically allocated instead of new'd. I know...

Hello!
Recently I had a strange problem with Visual C# 2005 beta 1.
When I ran(F5 key) a program, <#if DEBUG> statement was not working.
It ran as RELEASE mode.
So I had to manually define DEBUG to make #if DEBUG work.
When I first started the project, this problem didn't exist.
The problem started to exist in the middle of doing the project.
Today, I decided to figure out what went wrong.

Good day, fellows!
I have a strange problem – at my site there is a flash strip, that
loads data dynamically.
It works fine (grabs data from the remote server and presents it),
however in IE7 and its clones I encounter a strange problem where I
can hear clicking sound non-stop (like the page is being reloaded non-
stop), whereas the page is not reloading.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
