Optional feature not implemented while using SQL server

Hi to all
I am using SQL server.
I have written a stored procedure in SQL server and it is taking the datetime data type as one parameter.
I have written the following java code to call that procedure.
Calendar calendar= Calendar.getInstance();
cs.setDate(4,new java.sql.Date(calendar.getTime().getTime()));
cs.execute();
waiting for reply.
datetime is the 4th parameter.

the question has been resolve.the datasource with excel is not schema!

    I don't see anything Oracle in your question.   It looks like you're getting an error using Microsoft's SQL Server driver, did you mean to post this to a forum on  Microsoft's site perhaps?

  • Optional Feature Not Implemented

    Can anybody tell me the cause of this SQLException -
    Optional Feature Not Implemented ?
    I am getting this exception when i try to make my resultset scrollable -
    nConn.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE);
    or either use PreparedStatement.
    It occurs only when i use MSAccess or SQLServer Database. It doesnot occur with Oracle.
    whats the solution of this ?
    Thanks
    Sonalp

    There are several JDBC drivers for SQL Server, use one that support scrollable resultsets. The JDBC2 standard is made up of one required part and one optional package that the driver manufacturer might implement.
    Microsoft has released (or are about to, it might be beta) a driver of their own that should support scrollable resultsets. You can find it at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/downloads/2000/jdbc.asp

  • Error when update: Optional feature not implemented

    Hi, all,
    I got the exception: "[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]Optional feature not implemented" when I use MS Access to update my record.
    I searched the forum, but i couldn't get my answer. I can do select and insert into this table. but i couldn't update it. I am using jdbc-odbc driver. Thanks.
    The code I am using:
    int date = 186;
    String id = "BUF";
    String max = id + "_MX";
    //String min = id + "_MN";
    //String prec = id + "_P";

    try {
    ps = con.prepareStatement(query);
    ps.clearParameters();
    ps.setFloat(1, getMax());
    // ps.setFloat(2, getMin());
    // ps.setFloat(3, getPrecip());
    ps.setInt(2, date);
    result = ps.executeUpdate();
    ps.close();

    Thanks everybody! The problem was solved. I should use setDouble() other than setFloat() method.

    Hi Revees,
    This might be a very naïve and also out of the original scope of the thread question.
    We are thinking of going with the developer edition. We have 2/3 developers and some other testers and business users.
    1) I understand that we need a developer license for each developer. But would we need a license for the business user. Can they have a sort of read access to the dbs?
    2) If a developer has MSDN subscription, Would they need to purchase the license too assuming we purchase the developer edition of the software (and not download it using the MSDN subscription)?
    Thanks for your assistance!

  • Why to use SQL Server's native backup facilities, not other backup solution?

    I've been asked in my company: why to use SQL Server’s native backup facilities? Instead, they currently rely on other backup software, like Backup Exec, BrightStor, or even Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager. Those solutions let the
    company manage all of its backups—including SQL Server—in a single place, whereas SQL Server’s native backup abilities only apply to SQL Server.
    So what does SQL Server native backup facility give us more to be forced to use it?

    Satish and Pawan ... thanks but, a backup solution is just there. they don't need to pay anything. even though, having a backup solution that backup everything on the server, like files, software.. etc is needed regardless if you have SQL Server databases
    or not, and if it does database backup it would be even better and more complete as a backup solution. So sorry your answer is not an enough reason that will force me to leave that complete backup solution and use the SQL Server backup tools specifically to
    backup databases.  
    Olaf ... thanks as well. But I was just counting a number of solutions that i think they are related to backup things. yet I believe that Symantec backup exec does backup for SQL Server database, ain't?! what I understood from the link that you gave me,
    that some backup applications (if not all) use SQL Server backup facilities to do database backup, is what I understood correct? if yes then the question will be, is there any situation or reasons that force me to use SQL Server backup tools even if I have
    those backup solution (that some of them in the backgroud they are using SQL Server backup facilities)? does SQL Server backup tool give me more capabilities in backing up databases than what I find in backup solutions?
    The answer is NO, as of now you get all these features in 3rd party native backups...
    So in nutshell Microsoft never forces you to use SQL Servers Native backup -----The only reason why you get native backup featues is since SQL Server is an Enterprise Solution MS provide you all features in-built within the bundle so that you don't have
    to purchase any other license (incase you\your company doesn't have one already)
