Description:
------------
When running an INSERT command through MSSQL_Query, the transaction is successful (the record is inserted) but the script immediately dies ("OR die(...)" is executed).  I have followed what documentation I can find on the PHP site, but it dies every time. This does not occur on SELECT or UPDATE commands.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$MSSQL_Link = MSSQL_Connect($DistrictServer, "UserID", "password");

MSSQL_Select_DB($DistrictServerDB, $MSSQL_Link);

$Insert_Query = "INSERT INTO table(SchoolID, StateID) VALUES('$StudentNum', '$stateid')";

$Insert_Result = MSSQL_Query($Insert_Query, $MSSQL_Link) OR die("Could not insert record. " . $Insert_Query);

echo "Success";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
"Success" should be displayed on the page.

Actual result:
--------------
"Could not insert record. INSERT INTO table(SchoolID, StateID) VALUES('123456', '987654')" is displayed instead.

Set display_errors to On, error_reporting to E_ALL and restart the webserver.
Please post the error message you get after that.

I set the display_errors and error_reporting as directed, restarted the service (in IIS), and I could not get an error message to display. I also tried setting track_errors=on and then referencing $php_errormsg, but still got nothing.

Try
var_dump($Insert_Result);
after executing the query (and remove the "or die()" 
therefor, of course).

What does it result in?

var_dump gives me "resource(16) of type (mssql result)", which is what I would expect.  I did a lot of research last night and this morning, and I found that the original programmer wrote internal error-handling steps embedded deep within another script, and these were causing the problem.  I have been able to work around these, and now the INSERT command works fine.  I guess the bottom line is: be VERY careful when working on somebody else's code!  Thanks for all your help!!!
