It's been bugging me for a while, sometimes a query would fail and I would
get an informational message back instead of a useful error.
A good example of the problem was when use "dbname" failed with ASE 12.5
The first error returned by calling SQLError was a useless message about
changing character sets followed by another useless informational message
saying the database context had changed to master while the third was the
error describing the actual problem (syntax error)
After looking up the ordering of messages the MS ODBC doc mentioned they
have to be ordered by transaction errors, errors, no-data??? and finally
warnings.
Have Fun!
