No, nor I. Perhaps something else needs to be done before returning from pgapi_rowcount?

:-(. I believe Anoop is as well, so if anyone else wants to try a mini project...

Microsoft's ActiveX Data Objects - their most popular and recommended non-dotNET data access libraries. If they break, we will certainly get lots of bug reports :-(. My app is pretty basic as well, so it's unlikely to be an edge case. Oh, and fwiw, it's worked with psqlODBC back to v6.something, so it's not simply that it gets confused now it sees a rowcount from a select 'cos it always used to :-)

/D

Hi Scot,

Unfortunately I've been seeing some unexplained errors with some
Microsoft ADO based apps since applying this patch, so I've backed it
out for now. Unfortunately, ADO doesn't give any useful error messages.

I'm not entirely sure what's wrong - can you look at it please? I'm
still swamped at the moment :-(

Regards, Dave
