SYMPTOMS
Trying to simultaneously execute a second query on the same rdoConnection that currently has an asynchronous query executing will cause the following error:

S1000: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Connection is busy with

results for another hstmt



CAUSE
After you execute an asynchronous query you cannot access the recordset or execute another asynchronous query on the same rdoConnection until the StillExecuting property of the recordset is False. This behavior is by design.



RESOLUTION
You need to allow for the asynchronous query to finish before executing another query on the same rdoConnection or accessing the recordset object.

You can check to see if the query is finished by checking the StillExecuting property of the recordset. This can also be resolved by opening a separate rdoConnection for each query you want to execute simultaneously.



MORE INFORMATION
Steps to Reproduce Problem in Visual Basic Version 4.0:

This example uses a "DSN-less" ODBC connection so you will not need to set up a DSN with the ODBC Admin utility.

 Start a new project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default. Add two command buttons to Form1.  Paste the following code into the General Declarations section of form1. Private Sub Command1_Click 'The following code will cause the error: Dim en As rdoEnvironment Dim cn As rdoConnection Dim rs1 As rdoResultset Dim rs2 As rdoResultset Dim sql1 As String Dim sql2 As String

'establish connection Set en = rdoEngine.rdoEnvironments(0) en.CursorDriver = rdUseOdbc 'this should be modified to connect to your database Dim cnStr As String cnStr = "driver={SQL Server};server=myserver;" & _ "database=pubs;uid=myuid;pwd=mypwd" Set cn = en.OpenConnection(dsname:="", Prompt:=rdDriverNoPrompt, _      Connect:=cnStr)

'create SQL statements that take at least a few seconds to finish sql1 = "Select title From Titles" Set rs1 = cn.OpenResultset(Name:=sql1, Type:=rdOpenStatic, _      Option:=rdAsyncEnable)

sql2 = "Select au_id From Authors" ' The next line will cause the error: ' "Connection is busy with results for another hstmt" Set rs2 = cn.OpenResultset(Name:=sql2, Type:=rdOpenStatic, _      Option:=rdAsyncEnable)

While rs1.StillExecuting Or rs2.StillExecuting DoEvents Wend MsgBox "rs1 and rs1 have both completed" End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click 'The following code will not cause the error: Dim en As rdoEnvironment Dim cn1 As rdoConnection Dim cn2 As rdoConnection 'a second connection has been added Dim rs1 As rdoResultset Dim rs2 As rdoResultset Dim sql1 As String Dim sql2 As String

'establish connection Set en = rdoEngine.rdoEnvironments(0) en.CursorDriver = rdUseOdbc 'this should be modified to connect to your database Dim cnStr As String cnStr = "driver={SQL Server};server=myserver;" & _ "database=pubs;uid=myuid;pwd=mypwd" Set cn1 = en.OpenConnection(dsname:="", Prompt:=rdDriverNoPrompt, _      Connect:=cnStr) Set cn2 = en.OpenConnection(dsname:="", Prompt:=rdDriverNoPrompt, _      Connect:=cnStr)

'create SQL statements that take at least a few seconds to finish sql1 = "Select title From Titles" Set rs1 = cn1.OpenResultset(Name:=sql1, Type:=rdOpenStatic, _      Option:=rdAsyncEnable)

sql2 = "Select au_id From Authors" Set rs2 = cn2.OpenResultset(Name:=sql2, Type:=rdOpenStatic, _      Option:=rdAsyncEnable)

While rs1.StillExecuting Or rs2.StillExecuting DoEvents Wend MsgBox "rs1 and rs1 have both completed" End Sub

 Note that you will need to change your DRIVER, SERVER, DATABASE, UID, and PWD in the OpenConnection method. You will also need to modify the SQL statement contained in the Command1_Click event to match your own SQL data source. Clicking on Command1 will cause the error: "Connection is busy with results for another hstmt." This is because you are trying to simultaneously execute a second query on the same rdoConnection. Clicking on Command2 will successfully execute each query simultaneously because they are each on a separate rdoConnection.</ol>
