BUG: Problems Using Visual Basic Sample Program (ado_vb)

ID: Q183576

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for AS/400 and VSAM, version 1.0 included with Microsoft SNA Server version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

Several problems occur when you try to use certain functions in the Visual Basic sample program located in the following subdirectory:

     ..\sna\samples\ado_vb.

This is the list of problems:

- Multiple error message dialog boxes appear for each error; that is, one

   for the Visual Basic (VB) error and one for each error in the Connection
   object's error collection.

- Control buttons and menu items are enabled or disabled inappropriately.

- After you use the Filter, Find, OpenRS, or Sort command, the next time

   the function is invoked, the input dialog box does not display the
   previous value used.

- The tab order on the controls is wrong; that is, when you are editing a

   record, selecting a tab may move the cursor beyond the next text box.

- When a remote command has completed successfully, the message from the

   AS/400 is not returned to the application.
