Bug #: 471282 (SHILOH_BUGS)

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 fixes are distributed as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2000 fix release.



SYMPTOMS
If you configure a trace to capture the RPC:Starting event or the RPC:Completed event, any parameter that has a text data type that is sent by the client is truncated at 16 characters in the TextData column of the trace event. The parameters of ntext data types and image data types are not affected. This truncation only occurs in the Profiler event. All the text data is correctly passed to the stored procedure.
