[Quoted] Hi Gianluca,
Maybe I have 2 ideas on what might possibly help solve some ODBC problems:
[Quoted] 1. I noticed that #Error occurs when the datavalues in a field exceed the
[Quoted] fields capacity. To solve this try building a query on the table, gradually
[Quoted] add more fields until the #error code results, then you can identify the
rogue field.
[Quoted] Also I notice that Microsofts ODBC drivers are More compatible with Oracle
[Quoted] than Oracles ODBC drivers are compatible with Access, so try Microsofts to
[Quoted] see if this gives the same problem. The only place I have found these
[Quoted] drivers is in the Visual Basic 5 installation CD (Enterprise Edition).
[Quoted] 2. The problem you have with Access refreshing the links to tables, I have
[Quoted] seen only when trying to run pass through queries, so maybe you can get
[Quoted] around this by unchecking the pass through option ?
Just a couple of ideas, I hope some help.
