InsertingGoldMine Notes using SQL Stored Procedure
I'm running GoldMine 6.7 using SQL Server as the back-end
I need to add Notes to a contact record from with a Stored Procedure.
I have the GoldMine API's and there is a module called GMW_WriteContactNotes which is supposed to do this but I can't figure out how to use it.
According to the documentation the syntax is: EXEC GMW_WriteContactNotes @gmnv
I need to pass the acctno and the notes into this, does anyone have any examples??

Thank you, this works great, the note gets entered but I do get the following message returned
The 'GMW_NV_SetValue' procedure attempted to return a status of NULL, which is not allowed. A status of 0 will be returned instead.
Have you seen this before?

Which line does it show that error?
I have not used the Stored Proceedures myself as I tend to create applications in VB for them

It's one of the SetValues but I'm not sure which. Buit I will continue to troubleshoot.
The good news is that everythng seems to get entered just fine and the SP does not throw an error, so for now I'm happy to work with it.
Thank you again for your help, very much appreciated :)
