Re: SQLPassthrough from Visual Basic to Oracle. HOW?

It seems like passthrough queries can't find public synonyms on sys tables (or maybe dual is something special). I tried the following code on VB.5 (DAO) and it worked: Set Rs = Db.OpenRecordset("select ih_id.nextval as seq from sys.dual", dbOpenSnapshot, dbSQLPassThrough)
You must have a public synonym on the sequence or prefix it with sequence owner if you are running under som other user than the owner.
Hope this helps.
