Hello,
I posted a while back about a newbie database question and got a
lot of great help here. My script that I am creating has come a long way
(For me!) and almost does what I need it too. I am basicly using a
dictionary to update a access database using an odbc connector. I am able
to connect and it seems that I am able to loop through the code to update
all the rows I need to. The one weird bug I seem to get is what ever is the
last loop through doesn't seem to update the database?
Here is my code:
**********************************************************************************
import dbi
import odbc
invdictionary = {1112:0 ,1111:0 ,1129:0 ,1139:1 ,1149:1 ,1159:0 ,1169:0
,1179:0 ,1189:1 ,1199:0} # ( key : value )
invd = invdictionary.items() # convert to a list to loop
through
myconn = odbc.odbc('testpy') # connect to database
mycursor = myconn.cursor()
for x in invd:
mycursor.execute('Update Categories Set StockStatus=? Where ProductID=?
;',(x[1], x[0])) # run my sql update
print x[0], x[1] # Just to help me
debug
mycursor.close()
myconn.close()
print invdictionary # Just to help me debug
print invd # Just to help me
debug
Here is the output:
*********************************************************************************
1189 1
1159 0
1129 0
1199 0
1169 0
1139 1
1111 0
1112 0
1179 0
1149 1
{1189: 1, 1159: 0, 1129: 0, 1199: 0, 1169: 0, 1139: 1, 1111: 0, 1112: 0,
1179: 0, 1149: 1}
[(1189, 1), (1159, 0), (1129, 0), (1199, 0), (1169, 0), (1139, 1), (1111,
0), (1112, 0), (1179, 0), (1149, 1)]
************************************************************************************
After I run this script All the values update correctly except the 1149
value which never changes in the database.
I messed with this for a while and found by adding items to the dictionary
that it never seems to update whatever is the last item to go through the
loop.
I thought I would float it on here and see if this isn't an obvious mistake
that I just can't see. Any help is appreciated.
