BUG #: 4841 (Brazos)
SYMPTOMS
If an application does the following in the Microsoft Access 7.0 or 97 version of the ODBC drivers more than seven times
SQLSetConnectOption(hdbc, SQL_AUTOCOMMIT, SQL_AUTOCOMMIT_OFF);
SQLTransact(henv, hdbc, SQL_COMMIT);
The error generated is:
If the application calls SQLExecDirect with any SQL statement, the error generated is:
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, do not set the SQL_AUTOCOMMIT option repeatedly within a connection. The SQL_AUTOCOMMIT option is a per-connection option. Once this option is set, it stays valid until the connection is dropped; an ODBC application does not have to set the option repeatedly within a connection.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft Access ODBC driver version 3.50.3602. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
