Hi, Im pretty new to sql an developing.
Our SQL Server is restartet some times because that makes it faster than before. But my Programs will get an connection error in Visual Basic. I use the ADODC object to connect to an SQL server.
Does any1 know how to prevent such errors?
I've been searching in the Microsoft knowledge base already but they only say: If you get an error than the SQL connection string has got a wrong IP adress.

Thnx,
Fred

If your app tries to connectto the server and it's not there then you will get an error.
You can put some code in your database access layer to detect and handle the error though.

==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
