odbc_prepare

Is it just me or is the code above misleading? It makes it look like odbc_execute() returns a resource suitable, say, for passing to one of the odbc_fetch_* functions.In fact, odbc_execute() returns a boolean, which simply indicates success (TRUE) or failure (FALSE). The variable to pass to odbc_fetch_* is the same one that you pass to odbc_execute():<?php$res = odbc_prepare($db_conn, $query_string);if(!$res) die("could not prepare statement ".$query_string);if(odbc_execute($res, $parameters)) {    $row = odbc_fetch_array($res);} else {    // handle error}?>

The resource returned by odbc_prepare can be freed with odbc_free_result.

after 2 days finaly got a working code(SQL SERVER stored procedure with parameters through ODBC)STORED PROCEDURESET ANSI_NULLS ONGOSET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ONGOALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_prev_frm_prev2]    @id int,     @cli nchar(20)ASBEGIN    SET NOCOUNT ON;    --SELECT 1ENDPHP$stmt=odbc_prepare($conn,'{call db.dbo.sp_prev_frm_prev2(?,?)}');$params=array(1,"clie");$result = odbc_execute($stmt, $params);

Use this example for IBM DB/2:$q = "update TABLE set PASS=? where NAME=?";$res = odbc_prepare ($con, $q);$a = "secret"; $b="user";$exc = odbc_execute($res, array($a, $b));
