355.0. "Strange behaviour with ISQL and -i option" by STKHLM::KNORN (I'm still here) Mon Mar 24 1997 12:21

    
    (..is it because it's a monday ...)
    
    
    If I type this command in ISQL 
    
    alter table product_offering
    drop
    contraint FK_PRODUCT_OFFERING_PRODUCT 
    go
    
    everything works fine. BUT...
    If I put the exact same command in a .SQL file and use the input file
    option in ISQL  (like  ISQL -U me -P secret -i myfile.sql) I get the
    following error:
    
    1> 2> 3> 4> Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Server LUCIA, Line 3
    Line 3: Incorrect syntax near 'FK_PRODUCT_OFFERING_PRODUCT'.
    alter table product_offering
    drop
    contraint FK_PRODUCT_OFFERING_PRODUCT
    1> 
    
    Can anyone explain ?

    Maybe ISQL is parsing only the first 3 characters of 'contraint'
    and the command line is reading the whole thing? 
    
    Have you run SQL Trace while doing this from both the GUI and the 
    command line to see what is being passed?
