Problems Using Visual Basic Sample Program (ado_vb)

This article was previously published under Q183576

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.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.
