Hi Santosh:

It is my guess that you read about the ; trick but didn't notice that it was only a trick in BTEQ. The ODBC only see the commands as individual, not necessarily related commands.

If you wish the commands to act as a single transaction, the easiest and safest technique is to put them into a macro.

Otherwise, you are required to use the BT and ET commands to bracket them as a transaction. However, if an error occurs, the transaction ends and a new transaction starts. So, unless you have the ability to check the status code after every SQL statement, this is not a good solution.

God Luck,

Mike
