>Has anyone figured out how to submit more than one SQL - INSERT command in ONE SQLEXEC() function? For example, the following does not work:

>TEXT TO lcSQL NOSHOW PRETEXT 1
>   INSERT INTO MyTable (KeyID, Descript) VALUES (1, 'Test')
>   INSERT INTO MyTable (KeyID, Descript) VALUES (2, 'Test')
>ENDTEXT
>? SQLEXEC(lnHandle, lcSQL)

>Even with a semi-colon after each INSERT command does not work. TIA!


Which driver are you using. My guess is that you are using the MS Oracle driver. Compared to the native Oracle driver, it falls far short of what you can do.

Short of using sql loader - or using command line operations to run a sql script - which would be outside of ODBC - I am not sure you can render multiple lines.

Of course, stored procs is the way to go - but given your limitations, I know that this is likely not feasible for you....
