I need a copy of the latest and greatest adovbs.inc file. I think mine is corrupt and I could not find one on MS site.
Thanks,
Mo |

I think you need the copy that matches your version of MDAC for the esoteric stuff.
adovbs.inc is distributed with MDAC, look in \Program Files\Common Files\System\ado\ to find it.

Doug G,
I'm having problems with an ASP code that returns paged records from an Access DB (OLE DB). The application works fine when I place it on Readyhosting but I have been geting errors when installed on my Intranet server. I think MDAC might be the problem. Having said that and since I do not have access to the server at this time, do you know which version of MDAC should be installed on NT4.0?
I found the following at MS site http://support.microsoft.com/support/MDAC/26setupfaq.asp
============================
MDAC 2.6
============================
Thanks,
Mo

Yes, the ado constants you want to use/reference should exist in the distributed file.
I've read (and from experience) that you generally don't use all of them, so it's best to cut and paste only the constants you use and include them with your connection string, usually in an include file.

One tip!!
DON´T inlcude the whole adovbs.inc file into one asp-page.
Just copy the constants you need into the asp-page and You get rid of 7k load of constants.

Mo -
I run a mixture of MDAC 2.5 and 2.6 on NT4 and W2K machines. For 2.6 you need to get the Jet drivers in a separate download.
I have found things to be pretty stable with v2.1 and higher.

Hi Doug,
I ran the Component Checker this morning and found that I have MDAC 2.1.3711.11(GA) installed on one server and 2.5 RTM(2.0.4403.12) installed on the other . This is why the application was working fine on one server and not so fine on the other. When I changed my connection from OLE DB to DSN it worked fine. BTW, I am using this sample http://www.asp101.com/samples/db_paging.asp
I will create a full back-up tonight and install the MDAC 2.6 tomorrow morning. http://www.microsoft.com/data/download.htm#CCinfo
I'm running NT4.0 Service Pack 6
Thanks,
Mo |

Sounds like you're getting a net around your problem :)
