I want to present BETA Version of my ADO.au3 UDF. This is modifed version of _sql.au3 UDF. For that I want to thanks : ; Chris Lambert, eltorro, Elias Assad Neto, CarlH This is first public release , and still is as BETA DOWNLOAD LINK (in download section): Have fun, mLipok EDIT: 2016-06-03 Below some interesting topics about databases: EDIT 2016/07/04: For more info about ADO look here: https://www.autoitscript.com/wiki/ADO FOR EXAMPLE DATABASE use AdventureWorksDW2016_EXT.bak from: https://github.com/microsoft/sql-server-samples/releases/download/adventureworks/AdventureWorksDW2016_EXT.bak I will relay on this database in my examples. Here is link to post which shows how "ODBC Data Source Administrator" looks like.

We have AutoIt code that performs a connection to an MS SQL database running SQL server 2012, tls 1.0. It has worked successfully for years. Today, our IT department migrated our database to a new server that is running SQL server 2016, tls 1.2. Now our connection string is no longer working. Here is the original that was working in SQL server 2012 $sConnStr = "DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=servername,port;DATABASE=dbname;UID=user;PWD=pass" When that would run on the new server in SQL server 2016. We are getting the error [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SSL Security error We tried changing the connection string to $sConnStr = "DRIVER={SQL Server Native Client 11.0};SERVER=servername,port;DATABASE=dbname;UID=user;PWD=pass" The new error we received is [Microsoft] TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. We can log in successfully using SSMS using the server name, port and user/pass. Any suggestions on what we need to change in order to get the connection to work again?

Please join and contribute, in solving this issue, as this will be handy for entire community. @mLipok btw. I think that this may be realated to ChrB() which I simply translate to StringToBinary() Especialy this : StringToBinary(Chr(0))) could be the main issue. But for now I'm tired and going to sleep. Hope maybe tomorrow somebody solve this issue.

Hi all, This is an UDF for working with Access(2007 above) databases. I would like to say thanks to @spudw2k for his wonderful ADODB udf. That is my inspiration. And i borrowed three functions from him. The difference of this UDF is that it is using SQL statements as parameters. So if you know the SQL, then you can easily work with this UDF. Functions in this UDF 1. _Start_Connection 2. _Close_Connection 3. _Create_Table 4. _Delete_Table 5. _Alter_Table 6. _Delete_FromTable 7. _Insert_Data - You can use this to update or delete data 8. _Get_Records This is an example. This example uses an access database named Test. It is packed with the zip file #cs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AutoIt Version: 3.3.14.0 Author: kcvinu Date : sep 2015 Script Function: Examples of Access_UDF Template AutoIt script. #ce ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- #include "Access_UDF.au3" #include <Array.au3> ; only for displaying data Example1() Func Example1() Local $MsgBox1 = MsgBox(4, "Access UDF Examples", " Starting Connection example, Ready ?")

I hope my title is good enough. I'm using the ADO UDF and I have question regarding editing SQL records with this UDF. The owner of the UDF suggested an idea, but maybe there is another trix.

A few months ago someone posted a function that scanned a PC registry and returned a list of all the available ADODB connections installed. I've been searching on and off all afternoon trying to locate it. Does anyone remember which topic this was in? As far as my failing memory goes it was a post part way through an ADO related topic. Thanks

Currently I'm working on MS SQL >> PostgreSQL migration. Here are some of interesting Video tutorials about PostgreSQL

This is an example how to access/query different kind of Databases with AutoIt. The demo contains also test Databases, so the script functions for most of the provided database connections. Databases covered here: Oracle (no demo database for this one) MS SQL Server (no demo database for this one) SQLite (requires installation of the SQLite ODBC driver software available here: http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/ ) Of course SQLite is natively available in AutoIt but in some cases it might be preferable to use the ODBC approach accessing the database via the same scripted method, for example if you use different Databases in the same script, it is much easier to code. Excel DBase DBF MS Access CSV Text driver (semicolon delimited and comma delimited) The example script is based on Kinshima’s Oracle SQL example . I like the Dim by pack method, much better than redim one row at the time, which too slow. All the databases have the same data content (‘Timeline_of_space_exploration’) to keep the examples similar for every database. The result of each SQL will be displayed in Arraydisplay, togheter with a window containing the ADO-less connection string (yellow) and SQL. #Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Comment=Comprehensive DSN-Less Database connection demo #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Description=DSN-Less Database connection demo #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_Fileversion=1.0.0.0 #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_LegalCopyright=GreenCan #EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI **** #include <array.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <EditConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ButtonConstants.au3> Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1) Global $oODBC_Connection = ObjCreate("ADODB.Connection") Global $oODBC_RecordSet = ObjCreate("ADODB.Recordset") Global $bODBC_conn = False Global $oErrADODB = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error", "_ErrADODB") Global $bConn_error = False Global $sConnectionString, $sSQL Global Const $iDark_Blue = 0x2601D3 Global Const $iLight_Green = 0xEAFFE8 Global Const $iYellow = 0xFFFF99 ; setup GUI to display SQL Global $hGUI_View_SQL = GUICreate("SQL", 500, 500, 10, 10, $WS_CAPTION);, $WS_EX_TOPMOST) Global $hConnString = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 5, 3, 490, 38, BitOR($ES_AUTOHSCROLL, $ES_READONLY, $ES_WANTRETURN, $WS_HSCROLL)) GUICtrlSetColor(-1, $iDark_Blue) GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $iYellow) Global $ViewSQL = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 5, 45, 490, 450, BitOR($ES_AUTOVSCROLL, $ES_AUTOHSCROLL, $ES_READONLY, $ES_WANTRETURN, $WS_HSCROLL, $WS_VSCROLL)) GUICtrlSetColor(-1, $iDark_Blue) GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $iLight_Green) GUISetState() #========== Demo ============= Global $sDatabaseLocation = @ScriptDir & "\TestDatabases" #========== Oracle ============= ;~ #cs ;~ Not demo-able except if you have an Oracle instance ;~ #ce $sConnectionString = 'DRIVER={Oracle in OraClient11g_home1};DBQ=myDatabase.world;uid=myUserID;pwd=myPassword;' $sSQL = 'SELECT sysdate AS "Sysdate Raw", to_char(sysdate, ''Dy DD/MM/YY HH24:MI'') AS "Now" FROM dual' Format_SQL($sSQL, $sConnectionString) MsgBox(0,"Oracle SQL","You require to have access to an Oracle instance and modify the connection string before proceeding without error." & @CRLF & "The current Connection string will generate a COM error.")

I found na intresting example: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms677489(v=vs.85).aspx there is sucha a example: ' Error handler FormLoadError: Dim strErr As String Select Case Err Case adErrObjectOpen strErr = "Error #" & Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description & vbCrLf strErr = strErr & "Error reported by: " & Err.Source & vbCrLf strErr = strErr & "Help File: " & Err.HelpFile & vbCrLf strErr = strErr & "Topic ID: " & Err.HelpContext MsgBox strErr Debug.Print strErr Err.Clear Resume Next ' If some other error occurs that ' has nothing to do with ADO, show ' the number and description and exit. Case Else strErr = "Error #" & Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description & vbCrLf MsgBox strErr Debug.Print strErr Unload Me End Select End Sub ' EndErrorHandlingVB01 Question why there is used Case Else ? I see the comment but is it needed to use such snippet in AutoIt ? EDIT: It should be that the snippet is much more VB related, but I just want to know.

I was trying to play around with ADO this AM. I was using the Wiki example but for some reason I can't get it to work. The symptom is that the while loop just keeps going and does not produce any data from the queries, just the consolewrite lines. I searched the forum and saw some chatter from last year about ADO breaking changes but @water had commented that the Wiki example was not impacted. I am figuring it must be operator error on my side but I wanted to ask all the same just to be sure. Any guidance would be appreciated.

I am trying to connect to a database but I use an ODBC connection on my machine that I'm trying to eliminate the dependence on (I'm using the IBM DB2 connector which is not free... I had a trial version). This code works, but only if I have the ODBC connector setup in the windows settings: $oMyError = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error","MyErrFunc") $sqlCon = ObjCreate("ADODB.Connection") $sqlCon.Mode = 16 ; shared $sqlCon.CursorLocation = 3 ; client side cursor $sqlCon.Open ("DSN="&$DSN&";UID="&$USERNAME&";Password="&$PASS&";DBALIAS="&$alias) If @error Then MsgBox(0, "ERROR", "Failed to connect to the database") Exit EndIf Func MyErrFunc() $HexNumber=hex($oMyError.number,8) Msgbox(0,"COM Test","We intercepted a COM Error !" & @CRLF & @CRLF & _ "err.description is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.description & @CRLF & _ "err.windescription:" & @TAB & $oMyError.windescription & @CRLF & _ "err.number is: " & @TAB & $HexNumber & @CRLF & _ "err.lastdllerror is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.lastdllerror & @CRLF & _ "err.scriptline is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.scriptline & @CRLF & _ "err.source is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.source & @CRLF & _ "err.helpfile is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.helpfile & @CRLF & _ "err.helpcontext is: " & @TAB & $oMyError.helpcontext _ ) SetError(0) ; to check for after this function returns Endfunc But I want to connect without needing to install any software on the machine (so there is no localized configurations needed). Does anyone know of a way to get around this? Maybe with a DLL file that I can call directly and include with the script?

I've got a curious problem: (solved: see bottom of post) When I run SQL which calls a stored function, I get "This operation is not allowed when the object is closed" But when I copy that exact same SQL to the clipboard and run it on SQL server, I get a result without any problem. I can also change the SQL code to something much simpler, and the error vanishes. $sSQL = " declare @result int, @p11 varchar(255) " & @CRLF & _ " set @p11='No Error' " & @CRLF & _ " exec @result = uspWFInitializeChecklist @Company=" & $iCo & "," & _ "@Template='" & $v_template & "'," & _ "@SourceType='" & $sourcetype & "'," & _ "@Status=" & $status & "," & _ "@Name='" & $v_name & "'," & _ "@EnforceOrder='" & $enforceorder & "'," & _ "@UseEmail='" & $useemail & "'," & _ "@IsPrivate='" & $isprivate & "'," & _ "@AssignedTo='" & $v_username & "'," & _ "@Level=" & $v_level & "," & _ "@DueDate='" & $v_date & "'," & _ "@DueTime='" & $v_time & "'," & _ "@SendNotification='" & $sendnotification & "',@msg=@p11 output " & @CRLF & _ "select @result Result, @p11 Message" ;$sSQL = 'Select TOP 5 * from bJCCD with(nolock)' ; this works without a problem Local $iRows ;Number of rows Local $iColumns ;Number of columns Local $aResult SQL_Connect() ClipPut ( $sSQL ) ;if _SQL_GetTable2D(-1, $sSQL, $aResult, $iRows, $iColumns) = $SQL_ERROR Then if _SQL_QuerySingleRow(-1, $sSQL, $aResult) = $SQL_ERROR Then Msgbox(0 + 16 +262144,"Error","SQL Error: " & $SQLErr & _SQL_GetErrMsg() ) Else _ArrayDisplay($aResult) EndIf _SQL_Close() Does anyone have any idea why? The result when run on the server itself displays in one row with two columns. No errors. Things I've tried: Searching google (and these forums) Closing the connection at the end of the first query (in GetVPChecklists), then opening it again right before we attempt to run the more difficult stored procedure This error happens in _sql.au3 at line 467 when $objquery.eof is checked to see if there is any data. This is immediatly after _SQL_Execute was called which did not return an error. I've been scratching my head for a couple of days now, and would appriciate any pointers. Thanks! Edit: This code $sSQL = " declare @p11 varchar(255) set @p11='No Error' select @p11 " also pops up the same "operation not allowed" error. Edit: Solution!! Putting SET NOCOUNT ON at the beginning of my query solved the problem. Perhaps someone else will find this post while looking for a solution. My full query now looks like this: $sSQL = "SET NOCOUNT ON declare @result int, @p11 varchar(255) " & @CRLF & _ " set @p11='No Error' " & @CRLF & _ " exec @result = uspWFInitializeChecklist @Company=" & $iCo & "," & _ "@Template='" & $v_template & "'," & _ "@SourceType='" & $sourcetype & "'," & _ "@Status=" & $status & "," & _ "@Name='" & $v_name & "'," & _ "@EnforceOrder='" & $enforceorder & "'," & _ "@UseEmail='" & $useemail & "'," & _ "@IsPrivate='" & $isprivate & "'," & _ "@AssignedTo='" & $v_username & "'," & _ "@Level=" & $v_level & "," & _ "@DueDate='" & $v_date & "'," & _ "@DueTime='" & $v_time & "'," & _ "@SendNotification='" & $sendnotification & "',@msg=@p11 output " & @CRLF & _ "select @result Result, @p11 Message"

I need to provide an example of a form showing query result from MS Access. Preferably Access 2007/2010 (accdb format) I have read several posts / UDFs but just can't seem to find the missing piece. This is what I have so far: ; register error handler for displaying errors Global $oErrorHandler = ObjEvent("AutoIt.Error", "_ErrFunc") Local $title,$adoCon,$dbname,$adoRs, $_output ; create connection $adoCon = ObjCreate("ADODB.Connection") $dbname = @ScriptDir & "\" & "Nwind2007.accdb" ; this is for Access 2007 / 2010 according to Microsoft $adoCon.Open ("Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0; Data Source=" & $dbname) ; create recordset $adoRs = ObjCreate ("ADODB.Recordset") $adoRs.CursorType = 1 $adoRs.LockType = 3 ; this query is copied from MS Access designer ; should return something $query = "SELECT * FROM Customers;" ; open query $adoRs.Open ($query, $adoCon) with $adoRs if .RecordCount then while not (.EOF) $_output = $_output & .Fields("Address").Value & @CRLF .MoveNext WEnd msgbox(0,"RC", .RecordCount & " records found..") endif EndWith $adoCon.Close MsgBox(0,"result",$_output) Func _ErrFunc($oError) if $oError <> "0" then MsgBox(0, "COM error", "err.number is: " & @TAB & $oError.number & @CRLF & _ "err.windescription:" & @TAB & $oError.windescription & @CRLF & _ "err.description is: " & @TAB & $oError.description & @CRLF & _ "err.source is: " & @TAB & $oError.source & @CRLF & _ "err.helpfile is: " & @TAB & $oError.helpfile & @CRLF & _ "err.helpcontext is: " & @TAB & $oError.helpcontext & @CRLF & _ "err.lastdllerror is: " & @TAB & $oError.lastdllerror & @CRLF & _ "err.scriptline is: " & @TAB & $oError.scriptline & @CRLF & _ "err.retcode is: " & @TAB & $oError.retcode & @CRLF & @CRLF) endif EndFunc ;==>_ErrFunc For the demo purpose I use the NorthWind database, converted to Access2007. I did install the MSAccess2007 componens from MicroSoft. The NorthWind database is available here: http://ge.tt/35lU43M/v/0 All seems to work, but I never have a .RecordCount property, so the with/endwith is not executed. All I need is a simple forking example, then I can roll with the ball. <rant> Why must MS Access be SO difficult to work with when SQLite or MySQL are piece of cake ? </rant>

Hi all, I call a .xml file in this way: If FileExists($myxmlfile) Then If $call_ado = 0 Then _ADOCalls($myxmlfile) $call_ado = 1 EndIf _PopulateListView() GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $DB_GUI) Else EndIf Func _ADOCalls($file_xml) With $adoRsItems .CursorLocation = 3; adUseClient .CursorType = 2; adOpenDynamic .LockType = 3; adLockPessimistic If FileExists($file_xml) Then .Open($file_xml) EndWith EndFunc ;==>_ADOCalls Func _PopulateListView() _GUICtrlListView_DeleteAllItems($hListView) If $adoRsItems.EOF() Then $adoRsItems.Filter = 0 EndIf $adoRsItems.MoveFirst() $J = $adoRsItems.Fields.Count() - 1 While Not $adoRsItems.EOF() $Txt = '' For $I = 0 To $J $Txt &= $adoRsItems.Fields($I).Value & "|" Next If $sets[UBound($sets) - 1] <> $adoRsItems.fields(1).value Then _ArrayAdd($sets, $adoRsItems.fields(1).value) GUICtrlCreateListViewItem(StringTrimRight($Txt, 1), $ListView) $adoRsItems.MoveNext() WEnd GUICtrlSetData($LVNumber, _GUICtrlListView_GetItemCount($hListView)) EndFunc ;==>_PopulateListView I load 14,000 records. If I use _arraysort($mydb) before writing data to .xml, the loading time becomes horrible (around 40 secs vs 8 secs) (I need it sorted since I use _arraybinarysearch() to look for datas there and eventually change them.) _ArrayConcatenate($dest, $new_added, 1) _ArraySort($dest) ; <---------------------- Not needed here but I add since in previous lines it has been called _ArrayAdd($dest, "</rs:data>") _ArrayAdd($dest, "</xml>") _FileWriteFromArray($myxmlfile, $dest, 1) EndIf While FileOpen($myxmlfile) < 0 Sleep(1) WEnd _appendtemplate("headers") How to solve it?
