PRB: RDO/Jet: Run-Time Error 40069; Client Cursor Error 11 or 12

ID: Q181715

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition for Windows, versions 5.0, 6.0

SYMPTOMS

When you run a SELECT statement against the Microsoft Jet ODBC driver using RDO and the client batch cursor engine, you receive one of the following two error messages:

Run-time error 40069
Client Cursor: 11 - No update tables are specified

-or-

Run-time error '40069':
Client Cursor: 12 - No key columns are specified for the update table

CAUSE

When using the client batch cursor engine, and opening a static resultset, you must use the same case as in the table when typing field names into the SELECT clause of the SQL statement. This applies to the primary key field and any BLOB (Binary Long Object) columns--LongVarChar and LongVarBinary.

RESOLUTION

Use one of the following methods to resolve this problem:

Type the field names using the same case as the field names in the ODBC table.

-or-

After opening the recordset, manually specify the SourceTable property of the problematic columns prior to doing any data access. Also, set the KeyColumn property of the primary key field to True.

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

The client batch cursor engine needs to locate the source table name for the primary key field and any BLOB fields, because these fields are required when updating data and retrieving BLOB data.

If the BLOB column names don't have the correct case, you will receive the error 11 message.

If only the primary key column has an incorrect case for the field name, you will receive the error 12 message.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

WARNING: ANY USE BY YOU OF THE CODE PROVIDED IN THIS ARTICLE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. Microsoft provides this code "as is" without warranty of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability and/or fitness for a particular purpose.

In the ODBC 32-bit Administrator, in the Control Panel, add a DSN called NWIND using the Microsoft Access ODBC driver.

Open a new Standard EXE project in Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0.

On the Project menu, click Reference, and check Microsoft Remote Data Object 2.0.

Add a command button (Command1) to the default form (Form1).

Add the following code:


      Private Sub Command1_Click()
      Dim cn As rdoConnection, rs As rdoResultset
        rdoEngine.rdoDefaultCursorDriver = rdUseClientBatch
        Set cn = rdoEngine(0).OpenConnection("NWIND", rdDriverComplete, _
                 False, "")
        Set rs = cn.OpenResultset( _
                 "SELECT employeeid, notes, lastname FROM Employees", _
                 rdOpenStatic, rdConcurRowVer, rdExecDirect)
        Do While Not rs.EOF
          Debug.Print rs!EmployeeID, rs!LastName, Len(rs!Notes), rs!Notes
          rs.MoveNext
        Loop
        rs.Close
        cn.Close
      End Sub

Run the code and note the error that appears on the Debug.Print line.

Change notes to Notes in the SELECT clause and rerun the project.

Note that the Client Cursor error code will change from 11 to 12.

Change employeeid to EmployeeID in the SELECT clause and rerun.

Note that the error goes away.

To demonstrate the alternative workaround:

Using the original code from step 5, add the following lines immediately prior to the Do statement:


      rs!EmployeeID.SourceTable = "Employees"
      rs!EmployeeID.KeyColumn = True
      rs!Notes.SourceTable = "Employees"
