Question

Using Sax ActiveX Scripting (long story), I have 3 nested if statements which reuse the same return variable. Script looks roughly like:

Dim rtnArray As Variant
If variable1 <> "" Then
    ' Perform SQL query against DB2 database
    rtnArray = DB2SQLSearch(Query)
    If UBound(rtnArray) = 0 Then
        ' ditto
        rtnArray = DB2SQLSearch(Query2)
        MsgBox "Gets this far"
        If UBound(rtnArray) = 0 Then ' Error!
            ' Never make it here

What’s odd is that this same code structure is working in a script I wrote last week; I simply changed a couple of the queries and the name of the function (find > replace).

After the 2nd query, I’ve tried a MsgBox CStr(rtnArray(0)(0)) but it yields Error 10025 in : Array has a different number of indexes.

Error codes correspond to the following manual:

Answer 1

Figured it out.

In this particular case, the user that I was connecting as had authorization to the first table, but not the second.

This did not throw an error, but there is a message I can check to see whether there was a success or not, so I can look for that and throw my own error, instead of passing back a null array. (it’s not a proper Null, frankly I’m still not 100% sure what it is, aside from a Variant. But it sure doesn’t like UBound()!
