This is the statement before: $sql1="INSERT INTO Campaigns (Campaign,JobID,Client,SoldBy,SalesAssociate,Sales,PM,TestDate,LiveDate,EndD ate,IVR,[Int],PRF) VALUES('".$$Camp_entity."','$JobID','$Client','$SoldBy','$SalesAssociate','$ AE','$PM',$TestDate,$LiveDate,$EndDate,'$IVR','$Int','$PRF')";
The connection is in a include file and looks like this: $start=microtime(); $host='192.168.72.7'; $db='PaqTrac'; $db_user='PaqTrac'; $db_pw='jobcontrol'; //connect to DB mssql_connect($host,$db_user,$db_pw) or die ("Sorry, couldn't connect to database."); mssql_select_db($db); I've tried numerous things. What's funny is the following works but only sometimes: $result=mssql_query($sql1); $error=mssql_query('SELECT @@ERROR As ErrorCode'); if($error['ErrorCode'] != 0) { echo $error['ErrorCode']; echo $sql1; die('Inserting Campaign failed'); } This works for while until suddenly the subsequent insert statements statements start failing. I'll restart the server and everything will work fine for a bit. I inherited this app and although it's giving me hell I am enjoying PHP which I've never worked with before. It was originally PHP3 but when I migratated it here locally I installed PHP4. I'm running IIS on Win2k and the backend is MSSQL2k although I have a copy on MSSQL7 which hasn't made a difference. Right now I'm re-servicepacking the OS out of desperation. :-P Salve "Andrew Hill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Salve, > > Not sure if the MDAC version is necessarily the culprit - it's probably > something else. > What do you have earlier in your script?
