Обсуждение: DAO VB ODBC "read only problems
Folks,
I am having great difficulty getting a VB script (Excel) to talk to a linux
based PostgreSQL server. I can read data just fine but get the following
error when I try to edit:
Next line produces error:
Run-time error '3027';
Connot update. Database or object is read-only
I have done the following so far:
1. Created a table with a "PRIMARY KEY" as:
CREATE TABLE data2 (x integer,y integer,symbol varchar(15),pin varchar(15) primary key);
2. Made sure that the select statement does not end in a semi-colon.
3. Created the following table (don't think this is necessary).. but I saw
something that mentioned it:
CREATE TABLE "msysconf" (
"config" int2 NOT NULL,
"chvalue" character varying,
"nvalue" int4,
"comments" character varying);
4. Verified that the "read only" check box is not checked in the PostgreSQL
ODBC Advanced Options
5. Checked both "show columns" and "fake index" in the OID options section
of the Data Source advanced options.
6. Tried dbOpenSnapshot option (??? static cursor) on the OpenRecordset
method (also tried without).
I don't know what else to try,
Anyone have any ideas? (VB code below)
Sam.

It seems odd to me that the driver option is greyed out: are you logged in as an administrator? Sorry, fresh out of ideas.

I have no idea what this is... Could you send me the mylog output ? You could enable it by chekcing Mylog driver option. Note that mylog is pretty big. regards, Hiroshi Inoue
Hi Sam,
AFAIK, in MsAccess the dbopenSnapshot format is read-only. Try dbOpenDynaset and it should work.
HTH,

TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ?

Ross, - The read only attribute under driver options (advanced) is greyed out w/ it unselected. (I couldn't enable it if I wanted to) - Under the data source options, it is also unchecked. Does this sound correct? Any other ideas? Thanks for the help, Sam -----Original Message----- From: Ross J.

Hiroshi and others, Nope.... Also tried (randomly): -Disabling KSQO -Enabling "Unknowns as LongVarChar" -Enabling Parse Statements -Enabling Show System Tables -Switching to 6.3 Protocol -Tried to get pgadminII running as an independent test but ran into 7.1 dependency problems. Upgrading the system is a task for tomorrow. -pgaccess works fine. -Any other "known good" applications that could be used to verify functionality? -Any wisdom on verifying the logs? the only thing I can see the looks a little ominous is where it executes "select oid from pg_type where typname='lo'" and it returns 0 rows.

Hiroshi and others, I added: wrkODBC.DefaultCursorDriver=dbUseODBCCursor after the "Set wrkODBC....." line. Still doesn't work. Any more ideas? I discovered I am using postgresql-7.0.2-17, could that be the problem?

Please try
Set rs = conSource.OpenRecordset("Select * From data2", dbOpenDynaset, _ dbExecDirect, dbOptimisticValue)
and never forget to set the DefaultCursorDriver property.

Hiroshi Inoue
Hiroshi,
IT WORKS!!! Thanks a million.
When understand a little more what I am doing, I guess I should write a
mini-faq.
