Bug Report - DB toolkit returns error when calling the DefaultDatabase property with SQLite

[tst]

There's an old bug in the DB toolkit where calling the DefaultDatabase property returns error -2147217887 if you're using certain DBs (such as SQLite or PostgreSQL and I believe MySQL as well).

The problem is that this property is called by a VI which is used in some of the commonly used VIs (such as the insert VI), causing them to fail. Whoever wrote the code was aware of this issue, since they added a comment about it, as you can see below.

The immediate fix for this is pretty easy -  add code to ignore the error or don't call the property at all. It's not used anywhere in the toolkit and unless you're using the VI yourself to get the property, this won't break any code. The problem with this is that you need to do this in every PC.

NI already has a CAR for this (CAR 232063) and should hopefully fix it, so there's no need to take further action at the moment. This post is for people searching for this in the future.

This has been fixed in LV 2011.

Interesting. I have seen this before but it returned a different error code. (Error -2147352567)
