i am using sql server 2005 to connect to a vb6 or earlier version app.
i appear to be having a problem with the connection string - i have been to http://www.connectionstrings.com with no luck.
my script looks as follows:
code looks as follows:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
- function LaunchApp()
- {
- var result, Cmd;
- sqlQryLaunchSDH = "select colname from table";
- openConnection();
- // Create a new object
- Cmd = ADO.CreateADOCommand();
- // Specify the command type
- // Cmd.ActiveConnection = conn; = this is not supported
- Cmd.CommandType = adCmdText;
- // Specify the command text (the SQL expression)
- Cmd.CommandText = sqlQryLaunchSDH; //read in text qry
- // Execute the command
- result = Cmd.Execute(); //does not work Missing Connection or ConnectionString exception
- }
- function openConnection()
- {
- conn = ADO.CreateConnection();
- conn.ConnectionString = "Driver={SQL Native Client};Server=servername\\instancename;Database=dbname;Trusted_Connection=yes;";
- conn.Open();
- }
1] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
I then changed the connection string however I then ended up with this error
2] Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done
3] Now with the code above I am able to make progress until I get to results = Cmd.Execute()
Where I get ‘Missing Connection or ConnectionString’ exception
anyone experience this problem before?
