Hello,
Not sure if this is the right place, so I will post in both: SQL Server and Excel
I have an sp in SQL Server that catches 2 parameters, does a lookup, and returns the result.
I have a procedure in Excel that opens an ADO connection STATIC, calls the stored procedure with the parameters attached, and fields the result in a local ado recordset. It then closes the connection.
My understanding was that closing the connection orphans the recordset, and that the static parameter would makes the connection read only anyway. I also understood that the sp would return a discrete set of data, not an open connection to the tables.
I have found that these understandings are not correct, because adding data in the local recordset is inserting values into the SQL server tables. This should not be happening.

What am I doing wrong?
