I'm getting an 'access violation' whenever I use the mssql_query function - actually, it seems to be 
most functions, except for connecting and selecting_db.  The machine has SP6 I believe (might only be 5), but another one has SP6 and I get the same problem.  

$temp=mssql_connect("SERVER","db1","password");//  or die($phperrmsg);
$db=mssql_select_db("db",$temp)  or die($phperrmsg);
$q=mssql_query("select id from users");

This gives me 

PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 00000000


running

$temp=mssql_connect("SERVER","db1","password");//  or die($phperrmsg);
$db=mssql_select_db("db",$temp)  or die($phperrmsg);
//$q=mssql_query("select id from users");

It works fine, but obviously I don't do anything except connect and select.

Running THIS (with PCONNECT)

$temp=mssql_pconnect("SERVER","db1","password");//  or die($phperrmsg);
//$db=mssql_select_db("db",$temp)  or die($phperrmsg);
//$q=mssql_query("select id from users");

Gives me

PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 73342F43

A wholly different message from before, and ONLY using pconnect - not doing anything else.

The php_mssql70.dll I'm using was from download.swwwing.com build date of 9-6-2000 (june 9, 2000)

Also, the only way I can get the php_mssql70.dll to work AT ALL is to be using the 
PHP Version 4.0.1-dev version from download.swwwing.com as well - the standard distro 
from php.net (w32 binaries) NEVER worked with php_mssql70.dll.

I can't believe I'm the only one with so many problems - the mailing list has people with 
issues similar to this as well it seems.  

Please help!
