BUG #: 17722 (SQLBUG_65)



SYMPTOMS
Using Object Transfer from within SQL Enterprise Manager (SEM) and marking the transfer as Scheduled creates a new scheduled task. When you modify the task, you will notice that it is using the Xfragent.exe utility and that the task contains encrypted text. If you attempt to modify the task from SEM while running on Windows 95, SEM to generates an access violation (AV) with the following information:

SQLEW caused an invalid page fault in

module OLEAUT32.DLL at 0137:65346a23.

WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, do not try to modify the task from SEM running on Windows 95. If necessary, modify the task from the SQL Server's copy of SEM or from another computer running Windows NT.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server versions 6.0 and 6.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
