Dear all I try to retrive a set of data from an sql server 2005 database
with VS 2003

Following code is used :

m_sqlCon.Open()

m_sqlCmdObj = New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
m_sqlCmdObj.CommandType = Data.CommandType.Text
m_sqlCmdObj.Connection = m_sqlCon
m_sqlCmdObj.CommandText = m_SqlCmd
m_sqlCmdObj.CommandTimeout = 20

m_SqlAdapter.SelectCommand = m_sqlCmdObj
m_SqlAdapter.Fill(dsReelHist)

The .Open statement suceed
I get a SQL exception error " System error" when filling the dataset...

What is wrong here ?
Does framwork 1.1 is cabable of connection to SQL 2005 ?

regards
serge
 
I suspect there is a problem with your query. Put a try/catch around this
code and capture the error message, not what the debugger is saying.
 
1) VS (any version) can access SQL Server (any version) so this should not
be an issue. The same is true for the 1.1 Framework.
2) Where is the failure occurring? At the Open?
3) Have you figured out how constructors work? When you declare a new
SqlCommand object, you can pass the query and the Connection in one line of
code.

Serge,

The previous time somebody showed this I missed the answer that could have
been obvious.

The dataset is not declared.
(because you are so complete, the commandtype.text is default by instance).

Hey Serge :

Can I see the whole code, because it seems that your query is invalid,
or any object was not declared.
