Maybe the problem is simpler: on some version of mssql API
(maybe all?), I've verified that mssql_returns non-zero only for
SELECT statements (returns the number of rows selected, to be
more precise). All other statements return zero, so you could see
that darn "nay" even if the query worked perfectly :-(...
