i am converting an existing asp site over to php (noble cause) and i am using odbc as my connection layer. i have no problem with statements, but difficulties with stored procs. the following is one of the statements i am trying to convert:
<pre> Set cmdSub = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command") With cmdSub .ActiveConnection = DBConn .CommandText = "sp_edit_UtilCorp" .CommandType = 4 ' - adCmdStoredProc .Parameters("@UTILCORP_ID") = UTILCORP_ID .Parameters("@CoName") = CoName .Parameters("@Add1") = Add1 .Parameters("@Add2") = Add2 .Parameters("@City") = City .Parameters("@State") = State .Parameters("@Zip") = Zip .Parameters("@Tel") = Tel .Parameters("@Fax") = Fax .Parameters("@Email") = Email .Parameters("@ContactName") = ContactName .Execute edit_status = .Parameters("@RETURN_VALUE") End With </pre> i found this under odbc_execute, but it supposedly is unable to give a return value: <pre> $stmt=odbc_prepare($conn_id, "exec my_proc_name ?,?,?"); $parms=array("fred","password",5); if (!odbc_execute($stmt, &$parms)) die("odbc_execute failed"); </pre> is it possible to change this to both: explicitly pass the parameters by name and pass the return value to a variable????? thx Ian Ferger -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
