hi i'm accessing an OLEDB source using an OLEDB driver and am receiving an error. it happens if i run the app normally, but doesn't happen if i step through with debugger.

my code is:
cExecString="SELECT count(*) FROM adoption where addiscdate >= " + adsdate(CTOD(thisform.txtGesamt.Value))
oRS.Open(cExecString, oCon)

i receive this error:
OLE IDispatch exception code 0 from ADODB.Recordset: Operation has been cancelled by user...

cmdGesamt
Error: 1429
Method: Click
Line: 9
oRS.Open(cExecString, oCon)


The operation certainly isn't cancelled by anyone and i can't understand why it works when i step through debugger.
any ideas anyone?
thanks in advance!
