Hi Alf,

As far as I can tell it's working just fine. Hre is a sample:

<?php

if (!extension_loaded("mssql")) {
	dl("php_mssql.dll");
}

$con = mssql_connect("server", "user", "secret");
if ($con) {
	mssql_query("create table test_a (c0 int)");
	$rs = mssql_query("insert into test_a (c0) values (1)");
	var_dump($rs);
	$rs = mssql_query("insert into test_a (c0) values ('aa')");
	var_dump($rs);
	mssql_query("drop table test_a");

	mssql_close($con);
}

?> 

and here is the output:

bool(true)

Warning: mssql_query(): message: Syntax error converting the varchar value
'aa' to a column of data type int. (severity
16) in C:\php5\test\mssql_error.php on line 10

Warning: mssql_query(): Query failed in C:\php5\test\mssql_error.php on
line 10
bool(false)


As you can see the first insert is successfull so true is returned. The
second insert has an error so errors are prontet from PHP and false is
returned.
