NAV 2013 ADOConnection

mathieuk · 2013-03-18

Hi Guys,
Hopefully someone can help me with this.
I'm doing a NAV migration from 2009 to 2013 and there is something I can't make working.
I've got a function that's executing a stored procedure in another SQL database using the following automations:
'Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library'.Connection
'Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library'.Command
'Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library'.Parameter

Then, I've got this code:

IF ISCLEAR(ADOConnection) THEN
CREATE(ADOConnection);

When I try to save the function, it gives me this error:
"You cannot create Automation object "ADOConnection" on NAV server. You must create it on the client computer."

Can't we use automations with NAV 2013?
If not, any other way I can execute a stored procedure from NAV 2013? using DotNet variables?

Cheers

Yes, use

CREATE(ADOConnection,FALSE,TRUE);

If you want to use DotNet variable then try below blog

You can also look at the upgrade toolkit that uses dotnet interop for this.

Thanks guys for your answers.
I'm going to use the DotNet variables as mohana_cse06 suggested.

However, do you know how to add parameters to the SQLCommand?

Hi guys,
I've finally found the solution.
Here is the code, it might help someone else.

L_SQLConnection := L_SQLConnection.SqlConnection(ConnectionString);
L_SQLConnection.Open;
L_SQLCommand := L_SQLCommand.SqlCommand('[dbo].[DeleteUser]',L_SQLConnection);
L_SQLCommand.CommandType := 4; // for a stored proc

L_SQLCommand.Parameters.Add('@ApplicationName','test');
L_SQLCommand.Parameters.Add('@UserName',L_Login."User Id");
L_SQLCommand.ExecuteReader();

L_SQLConnection.Close;
CLEAR(L_SQLCommand);
CLEAR(L_SQLConnection);

Variables
Name DataType Subtype Length
L_SQLConnection DotNet System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.'System.Data, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'
L_SQLCommand DotNet System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.'System.Data, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'

Cheers
