ODBC Max Length of Pass Through Query with Access 2k2?

G

Greg Strong

Hello All,

What is the maximum length of an ODBC pass through query?

Things work fine with the code except when I try to create a view which
is pretty complex in Oracle. I'm using a DSN provided with the Oracle
Express Edition and using Access 2k2 as the front-end. When I debug
print the SQL and paste it into SQLplus it works fine. The length of
the debug print that works is 1988 characters. Since the exact same
code works with shorter SQL I'm guessing there is a max length to the
string that can be passed which is why I asked the question. Error
reads:

,----- [ Error on PTQ ]
| Run-time error '3146'
| ODBC-call failed.
`-----

The code is included below. Any ideals. Thanks!

What can I say? I'm just experimenting a little with Access 2k2 and
Oracle 10g Express Edition. Thanks!

64K characters. Beyond that you get a message that says something to
the effect that the statement can't be edited or some such.

The SQL looks all right to me, though that's just a quuick glance
through it. However, if you're getting results in SQL Plus, then you
shuld be fine.

I have heard of some issues with Oracle 10g and the Oracle ODBC driver.
Sorry, I can't remember exactly what they were. Some of the people in
my development/user community (for a CMMS) claim they found that using
the MS ODBC driver alleviated whatever problems they were having.

I've developed some standard procs that create Oracle views, as well as
procs that combine those views into a select statement (I generate SQL
that, without the use of views, can exceed 100K characters) and into a
PTQ querydef. I didn't bother to post them as there are numerous
conventions I use which may be difficult to see in context. I *don't*
use work space objects like you have nor have I come up with the need to
run commit statements. When you run an insert/update/delete statement
via a PTQ, the ODBC connection does the commit; statement for you.

It's better to trap the Oracle error. There's a KB article somewhere on
bringing back errors from Oracle which in my usually helpful manner, I
can't remember, but I'll show my code for this following. This is old
code and I've done some silly things in it (such as the strExplanation
string), but it's tried and true for the most part (watch the wrap).
fError is used in the on error proc of a sub/function as follows in
which this is a function of the form frmTmadSave:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Function fSaveGraphDetails()

<snip procedure>

Exit_Proc:
Exit Function
Err_Proc:
Select Case Err.Number
Case Else
fError "frmTmadSave", "fSaveGraphDetails"
Resume Exit_Proc
End Select
End Function
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Function fError(strForm As String, strProc As String, Optional
strExplanation As String)

'Generic Oracle error trapping method
'strexplanation should be prefeixed and suffixed and separated by
semicolons, with no semicolons used in error messages. For example:
';1;"Already entered as a name";

Dim errX As Error
Dim strMsg As String
Dim strMsgErr As String
Dim strTitle As String
Dim int1 As Integer
Dim int2 As Integer

strTitle = "Form/Module: " & strForm & ", Procedure: " & strProc
strMsg = "Please contact Tim immediately with the full text of this
message, including " & _
"the form and procedure name in the title of this message box."

'sometimes an error can be called and errors.count will be 0
If Errors.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & " " & Err.Description,
vbCritical, strTitle
Else
For Each errX In Errors
'if error count >1, Oracle error will be called first
If Errors.Count > 1 Then
int1 = InStr(1, strExplanation, ";" & errX.Number & ";")
If int1 > 0 Then 'there's a custom explanation provided
for this error
'find next semi-colon

int1 = InStr(int1 + 1, strExplanation, ";") + 1
int2 = InStr(int1, strExplanation, ";") - 1

If int2 - int1 < 1 Then
strMsg = "Oracle Error " & errX.Number & " " &
errX.Description
Else
strMsgErr = Mid(strExplanation, int1, int2 - int1)
End If

Else
strMsgErr = "Oracle Error " & errX.Number & " " &
errX.Description
End If

MsgBox strMsgErr, vbCritical, strTitle

Exit For

Else

MsgBox "Access Error " & Err.Number & " " &
Err.Description & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & _
strMsg, vbCritical, strTitle, Err.HelpFile,
Err.HelpContext

End If

Next errX

End If

End Function
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

FWIW the problem is with the case statements. Althought they work in
SQLPlus, when I simplify and remove case statement the create or replace
views work.

"case when (substr(BusCode,-3) between 100 and 199) then " &
Chr(39) & "BU" & Chr(39) & "||" & Chr(39) & "1" & Chr(39) & " when
(substr(BusCode,-3) between 200 and 299) then " & Chr(39) & "BU" &
Chr(39) & "||" & Chr(39) & "2" & Chr(39) & " when (substr(BusCode,-3)
between 300 and 399) then " & Chr(39) & "BU" & Chr(39) & "||" & Chr(39)
& "3" & Chr(39) & " end as BusUnit, " & _

I've eliminated the "|" and still an error. I would think ODBC doesn't
like something in there.

I'll look at my development stuff at work when I get back on Tuesday.
However, I'm pretty sure some of the create or replace view statements
I'm firing off via PTQs from Access VBA work just fine and the
(ridiculously) large views I create certainly have some fairly in-depth
case statements and certainly lots of pipes ||

Again, I'll look at my code on Tuesday, but something I just noticed was
your column identifier. I use double quotes, ie (from the end of your
case statement):

between 300 and 399) then " & Chr(39) & "BU" & Chr(39) & "||" & Chr(39)
& "3" & Chr(39) & " end ""BusUnit"", " & _

Instead of as BusUnit.

I can't imagine that causing anyy difference in performance, but just a
difference I spotted...

FWIW I've tried your syntax. I don't know why you left out the 'as', but
anyhow I thought possible easy oversight given the focus on the double
quotes. So I tried some other possibilities. I eliminated the pipes,
'|', and was left with what is below. The just of it I still get the
same error, and when I copy/paste the debug print into SQLPlus it works.
When I replace the SQL string with the drop view command the PTQ works.
So apparently something in the case statement being handled by ODBC is a
little fickle. If you also notice I took out the 'BeginTrans' and
'CommitTrans'

Well I banged my head long enough on DAO. After reading some threads on
DAO and its relationship to Jet, I thought ADO probably was a better way
to go. I've got it to work with ADO with the OLEDB provided with Oracle
Express. Couple thanks here to several sources. First an excellent post
by an Oracle Express user on Oracle Technology Network per
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=1279316&#1279316.
Also many thanks to Access 2k2 Enterprise Developer's Handbook which
provided some great information. I've also learned that in ADO you don't
need the semi-colon at the end. So here is the test that worked:

It is even wrong to use the ; as it's a SQLPlus "only" character used to
mark the end of a statement & not a part of SQL
Note however that you must (offcourse) use it in (anonymous) PL/SQL Blocks
ie

BEGIN
INSERT INTO ATABLE(AFIELD) VALUES(AVALUE);
COMMIT;
END
