Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> select for update not working on W2K/ADO
We have a Windows server application that connects to Oracle via ADO using the MSDAORA provider. It works on NT (MDAC 2.1) with Oracle 7.3, but has trouble doing a "SELECT FOR UPDATE" when running the same code on Windows 2000 (MDAC 2.5) with Oracle 8.1.7. The "open recordset" works, but it throws an exception when attempting to assign the value read from the database. If the "FOR UPDATE" is removed from the select clause it works fine.
Has anyone experienced similar problems?
Should I be using ORAOLEDB instead of MSDAORA as the provider?
There is a later version of MDAC (2.6?, 2.7?). Could this be the problem?
How does the ODBC fit into the equasion: Does the MSDAORA provider connect to Oracle via ODBC while the Oracle ORA OldDB provider bypasses ODBC and talks directly to the OCI layer?
Please copy me on any resoponse (in digest mode). Many thanks for any help.
