Error Message From adofiltr.dll

[Eric Dillard]

Hello

Do anyone knows what this error number means -2147024864.
My company just bought a new HP 5555. I install and tried out my application
on it and everything worked great. I have found problem with
DESKTOPTODEVICE function. When I tried to update the data on the device it
gets error -2147024864. I could not find any information about this error
message.

Thanks Eric

Hello Eric
check this side from MS Support:

The KB article does not include this specific error, possibly because it may
be a system error rather than an ADO error? But it is mentioned in the ADO
article 294424 "PRB: Error Opening an ADO Recordset from a File"
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;294424

It means:

-2147024864: The process cannot access the file because it is being used
by another process.

You are probably seeing this due to a change in Pocket PC 2003 compared to
Pocket PC 2002. With 2003 it is no longer possible to overwrite an existing
cdb file that already exists on the device. The workaround is to delete the
file first (which is an extra step) if you wish to overwrite it, before
calling DESKTOPTODEVICE.

Hope this helps,
David
