[DBNETLIB]CONNECTION OPEN (CONNECT()) ERROR

edited May 2004 in General
Hi,

I'm using RB 6.02 with Delphi 5 and SQL 2000.

One of my users is currently experiencing a strange problem that has me
perplexed. They run a large reporting process that initially looks to work
correctly. The report is set up for two passes due to certain required
functionality. The issue comes when the report reaches the 21st page of the
150 page report. At this point it blows the error:

'ERROR'
EXCEPTION CLASS EPrintERROR
CANNOT GENERATE REPORT
[DBNETLIB]CONNECTION OPEN (CONNECT(). SQL) SERVER
DOES NOT EXIST OR ACCESS DENIED.

The process runs without a hitch on smaller reports.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Daniel

    Hi Daniel,

    Since you do not receive this error for smaller reports, it sounds like your
    connection may be timing out before the report has a chance to finish. Be
    sure you are setting the connection timeout to infinite or a large enough
    number to allow for the report to finishing accessing your data.
