Problem with Returning a recordset from a stored procedure in ADO/VBScript

I'm having trouble getting a recordset out of stored procedure in ADO. The SP executes without errors, but the recordset object I return into is always closed.

Here is my code:
<%
.....
Set cmm = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
Set cmm.ActiveConnection = Connect
cmm.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
cmm.CommandText = "dbo.client_updates_proc"
cmm.Parameters.Refresh
cmm.Parameters(1) = client_id
Set logRS = cmm.Execute()

if not logRS.EOF then
.....
%>

My SP has one parameter, which I set above, and it ends with a select statement. When I run the SP in Query Analyzer, it outputs the table of results as is should, but I always get an error on 'if logRS.EOF then', saying that the object is closed.A good place to start looking is the ADO Connection Error collection. Check to see if Connect.Errors.Count > 0. If so, you will probably find your problem there.

Also, you can try adding SET NOCOUNT ON at the beginning of your SP, and SET NOCOUNT OFF at the end, before you return your recordset. Sometimes the command object stops asking for data when it gets the "X records affected" messages.

Finally, if that doesn't work, try being more explicit with your parameter naming. A good (and more readable) approach would be to use the CreateParameter function.

CreateParameter([Name As String], [Type As DataTypeEnum = adEmpty], [Direction As ParameterDirectionEnum = adParamInput], [Size As ADO_LONGPTR], [Value]) As Parameter

Assume your parameter is an INT named @.my_param

cmm.Parameters.Append cmm.CreateParameter("@.my_param",3,1, 4,client_id)

[Note: the values of DataTypeEnum and ParameterDriectionEnum can be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/ado270/htm/mdaenumnz_2.asp ]

Hope this helps...|||Ahh. Thank you so much. It was the NOCOUNT property.

Problem with Precedence Expression

Hello,

I have a SQL Task the executes the following statement;

SELECT COUNT(SettleDate) AS CountResult
FROM SettleDateCount

I have the SQL Task Editor configured for a Single Row result set. The Result Name is CountResult, and the variable it populates is RowCountRes. RowCountRes is Int32 with EvaluateAsExpression set to False.

I have a boolean variable called RowCountStatus. It evaluates as the following expression;

@.[User::RowCountRes] > 1

From the SQL Task, I have two different constraints, both of which evaluate with an expression. One constraint evaluates this way; @.[User::RowCountStatus] = True

The other evaluates this way; @.[User::RowCountStatus] = False

The idea is that if the count comes back from the sql statement greater than 1 then execution continues down one path, else it goes down the other path. Currently, the result comes back = 1. I expect that the 'False' path will execute, but the 'True' path executes instead.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your help!

You should use the watch window to test if the variable truly contains the value that you think it does.

This should help:

Thank you!

|||Don't know for certain, but shouldn't it be @.[User::RowCountStatus] == False (NOTE: double equal sign for comparison, single equal for assignment). Seems like it might hit the first test {can rowcountstatus = true, yes} and stops there. I very easily could be wrong though.|||

That was it! Thanks!
