I am using an active X component (PLserver) from Nordic ID to a handheld scanner Piccolink. I connect to an oracle database using ADO. when I run the project it is OK. Then I stop the program for refining the code, and the second time I run the project, the ADO connection is lost, and cannot be reestablished. I then have to close down VB, save my changes, and start VB up again. Then I have one shut again. What am I doing wrong? (With an old version of the active X component this does not happen, but the new one has some functions I need).
