Hello,
I have an Access Front-End utility that simply fills tables with BCP data and
counts the rows. It has worked forever with no problems.
sql = "Select Count(*) As HowMany From " & RTrim(Me.TableName)
rst.Open sql, DbConnection
RowsFound = rst!HowMany
In this one particular database, the Count(*) returns a 0 on about a fourth of
the tables.
If I change it to "Count(0)" or "Count([SomeField])", it works fine.
My question is: Under what circumstances does "Select Count(*) From MyTable" return a 0?
Pasting the SQL into the Query Analyzer returns the proper number.
Pointing the DbConnection to another database works fine.
Is it some weird ADO quirk?
Microsoft Access 2007 Front-End & SQL Server 2000.
Yes, the BCP operation is a Shell-And-Wait.
Thanks,
Wayne
