BUG: Problems Using Visual Basic Sample Program (ado_vb)

• Microsoft OLE DB Provider for AS/400 and VSAM, version 1.0, included with:
  • Microsoft SNA Server, version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

Several problems occur when you try to use certain functions in the Visual Basic sample program located in the following subdirectory:

     ..\sna\samples\ado_vb. 

• Multiple error message dialog boxes appear for each error; that is, one for the Visual Basic (VB) error and one for each error in the Connection object's error collection.



• Control buttons and menu items are enabled or disabled inappropriately.



• After you use the Filter, Find, OpenRS, or Sort command, the next time the function is invoked, the input dialog box does not display the previous value used.



• The tab order on the controls is wrong; that is, when you are editing a record, selecting a tab may move the cursor beyond the next text box.



• When a remote command has completed successfully, the message from the AS/400 is not returned to the application.

STATUS
