SYMPTOMS

Using MDAC 2.1 SP2 (build 2.1.2.4202.3) or earlier, when attempting to assign an ADO recordset field with Numeric data type to a second recordset field (for example, rs2!K2 = rs1!K1), the following error appears:

Run-time error '-2147217887 (80040e21)':
Error occurred.

This problem is observed when client side cursor is specified (adUseClient).

RESOLUTION

There are three ways to work around this problem:

  1. Use Server-side cursor (adUseServer).
  2. Assign field value to a variable, and then assign the variable to the field of the second recordset, such as:

    myVar = rs1!K1
    rs2!K2 = myVar
                        
  3. Use the .Value property of the Column object, such as:

    rs2("K2").Value = rs1("K1").Value

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Start a new Standard EXE project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default. Make a reference to the Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.1 Library.
  2. Double-click Form1. Copy and paste the following code under the Form_Load() event:

        Dim cn As New ADODB.Connection
        Dim rs1 As New ADODB.Recordset
        Dim rs2 As New ADODB.Recordset
            
        With cn
          .ConnectionString = "Provider=MSDASQL;Driver={SQL Server};UID=xxx;PWD=xxx;Server=MyServer;Database=Pubs;"
           .CursorLocation = adUseClient
           .Open
        End With
        
        On Error Resume Next
        cn.Execute "Drop Table T1"
        cn.Execute "Drop Table T2"
        On Error GoTo 0
        
        cn.Execute "Create Table T1 (K1 Numeric Primary Key)"
        cn.Execute "Create Table T2 (K2 Numeric Primary Key)"
        cn.Execute "Insert Into T1 Values (1)"
        cn.Execute "Insert Into T2 Values (1)"
        
        rs1.Open "SELECT * FROM T1", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
        rs2.Open "SELECT * FROM T2", cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
    
        rs2!K2 = rs1!K1
        rs2.Update
        
        rs1.Close
        rs2.Close
        cn.Close
