Author  Topic  TomKane Starting Member 2 Posts Posted - 2001-06-06 : 06:33:40 Hello, I'm having a problem with SQL Server 7.0 and would appreciate any advice you might have on this matter. We are running SQL Server 7.0 on Windows NT Server 4.0 our client machines are also NT 4.0. We have written an application in VB 6.0 that accesses a SQL Server database using ADO. The application has a process which compares related records in one table and based on a 'match' creates records in another. During this process, more often that not, the following error message occurs :- Error Source = Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server Error Description = (DBMSSOCN) General Network Error. Check your Network Documentation Error Number = -2147467259 Our server failed on us a couple of months ago and the drives were replaced, the software re-installed and it was put onto the company-wide domain - previously it had its own domain. The error has only started to happen since then. Thanks Tom
