Sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php Thank you for your interest in PHP. As per ODBC spec, SQLNumRows is not required to return the number of rows returned by a SELECT statement, but rather to any INSERT or DELETE statement only (this is in the documentation on www.php.net). A SELECT can return the number of result rows, but that is entirely upto the driver being used, and is not assured to work. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-19 06:21:25] [EMAIL PROTECTED] When using the same code in 2 pages (only the query is different), I checked that odbc_num_rows gives -1 in one of them (the other is ok). I check the SQL statement, and I conclude: - if I use ORDER BY (SELECT .. FROM ... ORDER BY ...) the function odbc_num_rows gives me the right number; - if I remove the ORDER BY (SELECT .. FROM ...), the odbc_num_rows gives -1 code: $sql=("SELECT id,term FROM dict WHERE state IN (0,1) ORDER BY term"); $result=odbc_exec($db,$sql); ... if (odbc_num_rows($result)==0) ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19497&edit=1
