Ryan Then you're ahead of me. That's why I said "I think", thereby implying a degree of uncertainty. I have worked with ODBC for many years and this wasn't mentioned. I first heard of it when JDBC arose. I did a quick search on Google for "odbc autocommit" and received 9000 hits. It looks like a function odbc_autocommit() may toggle the behavior for you.
