I've been trying to post a poll three or four times, but get this message every time:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e21'

Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.

/forum/new_post.asp, line 814

I just created a new poll, only for testing the feature. It worked fine. And I deleted it.

Maybe it was just a temporary bug, as always on PA... Ermm

Can you retry now?

Have you tried stupid standard things such as emptying the cache and switching it of and on again?

Now I have. Same result. Strange still that I can create this topic here, but not a poll.

I wonder if it could be a special characters issue, like diacritics,, or something to do with a copy-paste type function if not being imported in plain text issue. If you prepared it outside of PA then that could be an issue maybe. In the Member Control Panel ---> forum preferences, I keep the Enable the WYSIWYG post editor turned off usually because that gives me issues. It means I have to manually tag everything like [ img]blahblah.jpeg [ /img] address [ tube] whatever code after v= [ /tube] (without the spaces) I would try something without rich text (simple plain text) and without any special characters.

Maybe try making a simple little poll to test, like Dream Theater vs. Godspeed You! Black Emperor? I call dibs on Godspeed!

^ Now I can confirm that Greg is right. Thumbs Up

The only problem in your upcoming poll is this line: Аквариум? - Табу

I guess we can't enter special characters in poll choices.

^Ok thanks both. So no special characters at all? Like ü or å?

ü or å seems to work.

Cyrillic (like Аквариум Табу) does not work (in polls).

I had the same issue some time ago.
