[thelist] Database Schema from ASP

Thanks for the code Scott, it's much appreciated. I just tried it myself
on my SQL Server db and got nothing but when I connected to an Access db
I'm using for a different site I got all the right info... I've had a
little play with my method of connecting to the SQL Server database -
changing from DSN to a hardcoded connection string (shown below), and
now it works fine! Any idea why that would be? There must be something
about DSN that I don't know or haven't configured...

Old Conn:
"dsn=dsnMyDB;uid=UID;pwd=PW;"

New Conn:
Provider=sqloledb;Data Source=MyDB;Initial Catalog=SpiritSoft;User
Id=UID;Password=PW;


(A much happier) Mike

I don't use JScript but your code looks fine. The VBScript
below is essentially the same and I'm getting results...

set conn = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open "urConnectionString"

'set rs = conn.OpenSchema(adSchemaTables) ' 20
'set rs = conn.OpenSchema(adSchemaForeignKeys) ' 28

do while not rs.eof

  for each field in rs.fields
    response.write(field.name & " = " & field.value & "<br />"
  next
  response.write("<hr />")

  rs.MoveNext
loop

'cleanup
---------------

Basically a "it works for me" response ;)

FWIW, I'm running w2k sql2k. Fully SPd.
