if i leave ms-access longer than 25 minutes alone with mysql via
myodbc 3.51
i cannot close ms-access:
- free translation:
this procedure will put the current code back into the interruption
mode. would you like to stop the execution of the code?
- german-original:
dieser vorgang wird den aktuellen code in den
unterbrechungsmodus zuruecksetzen. moechten sie die

i have to kill ms-access with the task-manager!
after 24 minutes, no problems.
my preferred solution would be:
$killall -9 access.exe
#rpm -e ms-office
#rpm -e windows
is this a known problem with
myodbc?
access?
how can i prevent this?
Search back through the archives of this list and the MyODBC list.
The short answer is that Access is f**ked and will crash when left
unattended.
I had originally thought that it only affected Access 2002, as Venu
couldn't reproduce my problem under Access 2000. But apparently not.
One dodgy fix which I've considered but not used is to have a hidden
form with a timer event which opens an ADO connection to MySQL and
closes it every 3 minutes. I haven't tested it but since the problem
only happens when there is no activity between Access and MySQL, I
assume this will work. Personally I prefer to leave it as is and tell
everybody to direct their complains to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I would _strongly_ recommend that if you are working on an original
database that you close it before walking off to get a coffee. I have
lost almost a full day's work on several occassions because of this.
If you can be bothered, maybe turn on ODBC logging and send a log in to
the MyODBC list. However I'm pretty sure the problem is with Access and
not MySQL / MyODBC. Maybe it's even intended...
