ADO and RDS Objects
OBJECT: Error
Error
The ADO
Error
object contains detailed information about any data access errors or warnings that have been generated during a single operation.
When an error occurs, the provider is responsible for passing an error text to ADO. In turn, each time an error or warning occurs, ADO generates an
Error
object which contains the details of the specific error. Each of these
Error
objects is then stored in the
Errors
collection, which is a collection that is unique to the
Connection
object. In order to access these errors, you must refer to the specific connection.
Remember, each
Error
object contains only one error. Since multiple errors might have occurred, you may need to enumerate through the collection of
Error
objects. For example, in VBScript:
Code (VBScript):
For Each objError in objConnection
Response.Write objError.Description & VBCRLF
