BUG #: 4643 (OLEDSDK)



SYMPTOMS
When an application queries SQL Server for the MONEY datatype using IDBSchemaRowset::GetRowset DBSCHEMA_COLUMNS, it returns DBTYPE_NUMERIC (131). This is inconsistent with IColumnsInfo::GetColumnInfo, which returns DBTYPE_CY (6) for the MONEY datatype.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use IColumnsInfo::GetColumnInfo for the column metadata.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in OLEDB SDK version 1.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
