Hi all,
I have a VB application that generates the following error when it connects to the SQL database:

Run-time error '-2147217887 (80040e21)':
Multiple-step operation generated errors. Check each status value.


What does this mean? I have never gotten this before.

Thanks in advance for your help.

A Google seartch for Run-time error '-2147217887 (80040e21)':
Multiple-step operation generated errors.
yielded 1220 results. Mybe one of them will be relevant to your situation. Most looked like they were database-related.

This error usually means you are trying to put too much data in to a field. For example, suppose you have a FirstName field defined as VarChar(20), but you try to put 25 characters in to this field.
