Ruby + sql server

Hi,
I would like to execute a stored procedure using ruby and sql server
2000 with DBI and ODBC.
Can anyone give me an example on how to do it?
Thanks

Probably the simplest way is use ruby-dbi to open a connection, and
then run the “EXEC ” SQL as a regular
statement. You should find plenty of resources on the web about using
ruby-dbi.

Here is what worked for me:

I made an ODBC System DSN named ruby to the DB & Server I wanted to
connect to.

so my ruby script looks like this:

require “dbi”

db = DBI.connect(‘dbi:ODBC:ruby’, ‘sa’, ‘UMsys#07’)

storedproc = “EXEC createUser @userName=bob, @password=bob”

stmt = db.prepare(storedproc)
stmt.execute

puts “User Created”

stmt.finish
db.disconnect

Hope that helps…
