Someone please help. I have a peice of code (below) that when run from
VB returns a value of -2 but when I run the exact same SQL statement
from Access it produces the correct value of 7. Can anyone help?
Table: tblResp
Column 1: VarName (Char, 8)
Column 2: Resp (Char, 40)
VarName Resp
M5d "0"
M5h1 "-9"
CGF4a "0"
CGF4b "0"
CGF4c "0"
CGF4d "0"
CGF4e "0"
CGF4f "7"
SQL Code: Select Sum(CDBL(tblResp.Resp)) As Response From tblResp
Where Resp Not Like '-*'
4  4915 
For some reason, when using ADO (with Access files, anywasy), the LIKE keyword
uses the %
character instead of the *.

Are you executing the code against Access or against SQLServer? If
SQLServer, you need to use the CONVERT() TSQL function call. In
general, you cannot mix and match VB functions with SQL (unless you're
only doing Access databases...).
If you're doing VB stuff, will want to stick to ANSI SQL.
I hope this is helpful...

Dear Steve Gerrard,
I was facing the same problem of 'LIKE *' in ADO sql string that david was facing. Thank you very much for your guidence. i worked very hard to solve this problem but no one was knowing. now u helped me. thnx. :) (people developed ADO/MS Access are careless, i should say. they dont know how hard the programmers work to make software, using ADO/Access. they should solve this problem.)
