Help !!!
insert,update,delete not working properly for MS SQL server 2000

I'm using a connection pool with the following Mbean code


MSSQLPOOL
org.jboss.pool.jdbc.xa.wrapper.XADataSourceImpl

jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://DR-EVIL:1433;DatabaseName=myDB;SelectMethod=cursor
1200000
sa
0
sa
false
false
true
false
120000
1800000
true
false
1.0
0


which I got from the forum. My views work fine, it's my deletes, updates and inserts that aren't working and it's

driving me insane. They are being applied in a fashion.

I'm getting a connection as follows

Context ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:/MSSQLPOOL");
Statement stmt = null;
conn = ds.getConnection();
stmt = conn.createStatement( );
stmt.execute("Exec spInsertMember @userName = 'alpha', @password='snarf'");
System.out.println("Number of rows affected : " + stmt.getUpdateCount( ));
stmt.close( );
OR
stmt = conn.createStatement( );
int x = stmt.executeUpdate("Exec spInsertMember @userName = 'beata', @password='snarf'");
System.out.println("Number of rows affected : " +x);
stmt.close( );
//con.close( );

The weird thing is it is actually printing out 1 row affected, but nothing is getting put into the database !!!
What I mean is if I performed a view here I would get back what I just entered, which is super, but if I go into

SQL Server Enterprise Manager, there is nothing there, even though the the view I run through my bean returns the

two inserts, a view preformed in SQL Server returns empty. Oh By the way I'm using microsofts sql server jdbc

driver.
That was with
<ejb-jar>
JBoss ResponseProvisioning Application
<display-name>Response Provisioning EJB</display-name>
<enterprise-beans>

<ejb-name>MemberProvisioningEJB</ejb-name>
com.eContract.ejbs.MemberProvisioningHome
com.eContract.ejbs.MemberProvisioning
<ejb-class>com.eContract.ejbs.MemberProvisioningBean</ejb-class>
<session-type>Stateful</session-type>
<transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>

</enterprise-beans>
</ejb-jar>

I changed it to

<transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
and I get
