Code Tag

[Fidgits]

Hi, I thought the

 tag when posting was to allow HTML code to be placed into a post.

However, after trying this, I discovered it didn't.. so what does this tag do?

Thanks

Ian.

The code tag normally formats the text differently.

It is used to post "code" snippets - of any language, on programming / technical forums.

So - for example I could use it to post this ActiveX script I have lying around - on an ActiveX site

Option Explicit

Function Main()

	Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success

	Dim oPkg, oStep
	Dim sServer, sUID, sPWD, iSecurity , sPkgPWD, sPkgName, sErrMsg
	Set oPkg = CreateObject("DTS.Package")

	' Assign parameters
	sServer = "LDA-PMSDB"
	sUID = ""
	sPWD = ""
	iSecurity = DTSSQLStgFlag_UseTrustedConnection
	sPkgPWD = ""
	sPkgName = "Create lda_transactions"

	' Load Child Package
	oPkg.LoadFromSQLServer sServer, sUID, sPWD, iSecurity , sPkgPWD, "", "", sPkgName

	oPkg.Execute

	For Each oStep In oPkg.Steps
  If oStep.ExecutionResult = DTSStepExecResult_Failure Then
  	Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Failure
  End If
	Next

	oPkg.Uninitialize
	Set oStep = Nothing
	Set oPkg = Nothing

End Function

HTML is turned off for these forums, as the potential scope for damage far outweighs the advantages.
