BUG: Recordset DTC Does Not Pick Up Data Connection on ASPID: Q191153
|
The Recordset Design-time control (DTC), when placed on an Active Server Pages (ASP) page, will not pick up any data connection made to a project. The connections will not show up in the connection drop-down list and a red exclamation point will show up instead.
When choosing the File New, an Active Server Page gets added to the Miscellaneous folder and not the current selected project. The Miscellaneous project is a utility folder that does not have a URL context. Therefore, various features, such as design-time controls, will not function.
Right-Click the project that you want the ASP file to go into and select
the Active Server Page option from the Add menu, rather than New from the
File menu.
For files already created, drag them from the Miscellaneous project to a
Web Project in the Project Explorer.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this bug and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
Other DTCs or any other dynamic process will also fail when added to a file to the Miscellaneous project.
