I was trying to find the primary keys from an SQLServer database through the ODBC interface. Funnily enough, the odbc_primarykeys function doesn't work with SQLServer (at least not my implementation of it). Fortunately, the sp_keys query is passed through and the answer returned. This code works (providing you know which database you're dealing with, which is a whole 'nother story). // If this is SQLServer, we need to do a special operation to get the // primary keys. // // Looks like the implementers of the ODBC interface just blew this // one off, since the database has a query to return the info and the // info even comes back with the same column names. if ($DBType == "SQLServer") $KeySel = odbc_exec($DBConn, "sp_pkeys ".$TableName); // Otherwise, ask the database through ODBC for the primary key // names. else $KeySel = odbc_primarykeys($DBConn, $DatabaseName, $DatabaseUser, $TableName); while ($KeySel && ($KeyRec = odbc_fetch_array($KeySel))) $KeyCol[$KeyRec["KEY_SEQ"]] = $KeyRec["COLUMN_NAME"]; ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 68.162.206.60 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.odbc-primarykeys.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/68056 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68056/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68056/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68056/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68056/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68056/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68056/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68056 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/68056 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
