I have a small application that is MS Access linked tables through to a SQL Server 7 via an ODBC connection. Our main application is the same setup and works fine. The small application doesn't work fine. When a user tries to insert a new record they get an error message which I suspect is something at the server end as otherwise everything is fine.My question is this. I was going to try to do a trace to try to narrow down the possible causes but I'm not sure what I should be tracing to determine why this INSERT isn't working. Any suggestions would be appreciated.Many thankssteve-----------Facts are meaningless. You could use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true! |

I would filter on the Database and that user's login (or machine or whatever)I would then re-try the various INSERT / UPDATE commands (wrapped with BEGIN TRANS ... ROLLBACK) and see what errors I get out of Q.A. (that Access just might not be reporting in full).Sounds like its ADO version, permissions, timeout, or connecting to something-other-than-what-you-think-they-are!Kristen |

Thanks guys I've managed to track down the problem. The original error message wasn't really very helpful but I managed to get more informationsteve-----------Facts are meaningless. You could use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true! |
