I'm using VB6 with ADO to connect to Access.
I have a form which is used for batch input, and another form which is used to view all the batches.
On the input form you can add, alter and delete items from a batch. In each of these cases a Transaction is used, and all works fine. From the batch view form (which displays all batches in a listview) you can double click on any batch item, and the batch input form is displayed with the details displayed for the selected batch item. The problem is when I try to delete or alter this item I get the following error message, and I have absolutely no idea why. :confused:
-2147467259 Attribute can not be set now.
It occurs on the BeginTrans statement.
Please HELP!!

Are you trying to set the recordset before the begintran??
-
Nope.
It all works fine when using the batch input form. It only keels over when using the functionality in the form from another form.
-
If i remember correctly, you can not have an open recordset before the begintrans. All the recordsets must be close before you open a transaction. Then open another recordset in that transaction. Try this.
-
As far as I can see I have no recordsets open. I have so many that it is easy to miss in the code.
Is there a way of closing all open recordsets?
-
I've just been looking through the help about transactions, and in it they give an example where a recordset is open just before the BeginTrans, so that appears not to be the problem.
Any other ideas?
-
Talk about conflicting info. In the help it gives an example with an open recordset before a BeginTrans statement, but whilst searching through MSDN I found something that said you should close the connection and re-open it.
To cut a long story short, I closed and re-opened the connection before the BeginTrans statement (when using from another form) and it all works well. :D
Thanks for the help. :)
