OraOLEDB.Oracle GetRecordSet() throw “ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis"
Hi,
I am unfortunately working on an old VB6 app that is constructing a huge (11902 characters) ad-hoc SQL statement which is then passed to the GetRecordSet() method of my DBConnection. The app is using the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider. When the GetRecordSet() method is executed, however, I get the following error:
ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis
Now I have grabbed the contents of the string that is passed in to the GetRecordSet() function and have thoroughly examined it and there are no missing parens. Additionally, I am able to execute the select statement in Oracle SQL Developer as well as SQL*Plus, withou difficulty. So I am sure that the string is syntactically correct.
I am beginning to suspect that something fishy is happening in the provider - perhaps the string is too long and it is getting truncated somewhere?
Can anyone out there help me out?
Thanks, Steve
