PRB: "Unclosed Quote" Error when Calling Oracle Stored Procedure

ID: Q175090

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

The following error occurs when previewing an Active Server Pages (ASP) page that calls an Oracle stored procedure:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Unclosed quote before the character string ' '.

<asp file name and line number>


CAUSE

The conditions that cause this error are as follows:

  1. Making a call to an Oracle stored procedure.


  2. Using the Data Command Control to insert the ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) code that accesses the stored procedure.


  3. Editing and closing the Data Command Control at least once after initially inserting the control.


  4. Choosing the stored procedure name from the Command Text drop-down list box in the Data Command's property sheet.


The Data Command Control incorrectly parses the Command Text being assigned to the cmdText object. The second time the DataCommand Control is opened it parses the sting as follows: 

   cmdTemp.CommandText = 'dbo.''my_stored_proc'''
Which should be the following: 

   cmdTemp.CommandText = 'dbo.my_stored_proc'


RESOLUTION

  1. Open the Data Command Control.


  2. Manually enter your stored procedure name (for example, "my_stored_proc") in the Command Text property box.


  3. Close the control and preview the page.


  4. It works. If you open the control again and close it, it still works.



STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
