Platform:
SQL 7.0 sp2
NT4/2000 sp5/sp1
VB6 sp4
I have a VB app running quite a lengthy SQL sp - like a month-end routine. I want to give progress feedback to the VB app by either implementing a progressbar or record count. I call the sp from VB in asynchronous mode (gives control back to VB). The sp make use of cursors to update the "month-end" table. Is there a method that I can send a value back from the SQL sp to VB without too much performance decrease. In VB I will make use perhaps of a timer collecting the returned data for display.
I do not want to make use of an animated hourglass - the users get sometimes impatient and kill the app - thinking the app is "hanging"
Thanks
Pierre" |
