ODBC error (incorrect syntax) since 2604
Overnight i have the problem that many inserts in my MS Access app do not work anymore. I get the error Run-time error '3155': ODBC--insert on a linked table 'tablename' failed. [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near '='.(#102) I have been able to isolate this issue on a column of type NVARCHAR(MAX). If I insert any value except null in this column the error above will show on save. I tested with other variants of NVARCHAR. The problem happens starting from NVARCHAR(256), thus what is Long Text for Ms Access. When i insert the record first with a value null for this column, no error is generated and the record is saved. If i 'Update' the record later with a text value in this column, that is no problem. So, the ODBC connection generates a sql insert statement that is mallformed in case of a long text. I have this problem consistent on all apps and all tables where i have NVARCHAR(>255). My solution is to go back to office release 2508 (semi annual support).Solved475Views1like2Comments
