ado connection time out

Post by howl » Tue Sep 16, 2008 2:09 pm

Using v9.1.03

I sometimes get a time out exception when opening an ado connection in the VB section of a script. I would like to either increase the connection time out or put in exception handling. Can you guide me or point me to to documentation on either option?

Thanks

As you haven't provided any code I will have to guess that you are using ADODB.Connection. In which case you can set the timeout something like this:

Set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.ConnectionTimeout = 120
etc

Did you know version 10 includes native DB functions?
