odbc_errormsg

Name

odbc_errormsg — Returns an ODBC error code.

Synopsis

string odbc_errormsg([conn]); resource conn (optional): Connection ID

Returns

ODBC error message

Description

Gets the last error message returned from the ODBC connection identifier. This is the actual error message as opposed to a six-digit code from odbc_error() , and hence is more user-friendly. If a connection identifier is specified, the error relates to that specific connection; otherwise, the last error is returned for any available connection.

Version

Existing since version 4.0-.5

Example

Example 1333. Check for an error

<?php
$db = odbc_connect("DSN","user","pass");
$sql = "SELECT ProductName, UnitPrice FROM WrongTable";
if (!$result = @odbc_exec($db, $sql)) {
   echo "Query error! ODBC error: ", odbc_errormsg();
} else { 
   while (odbc_fetch_row($result)) {
      echo odbc_result($result, "ProductName"), "\n";
   }
}
?>
