RE: Excel VBA and Journals

Roland,

Not come across this exact problem, but...

Make sure that your connection type in your ODBC is set to Read-Only (Select
statements only).  By default it is set to Read-Write (all SQL statements
allowed).  I know from previous experience that this setting does affect the
way tables handled and locked.  If you use the default read-write, you lock
your tables even when performing a read only process.  The error may be a
result of you locking the table during your read operation

Let me know how you get on.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi All,

I'm trying to use Excel (VBA) to read data from S21 files (like SLP05)

Ofcourse started with some files in our test envoirement.

Although I only want to READ records, it keeps on naging me with a message :

Error -2147467259 (80005005) while executing:

CPF4328 : section SLP05 not in journal *N

OK, after creating a journal and journal reciever this problem is solved.

Only problem is : I do *not* want to create journal and journal recievers
because :
- I do read only actions
- No commitment control required
- I do not want those enormous journals

Anyone knows how in VBA to read files without the need of journaling ?

add. info :

OS : V5R1M0

VBA : 
I use Provider=IBMDA400 and a mix of ADODB and AD400 connections /
recordsets / Indexes / commands

Regards,

Roland
