APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Data Access Components 2.7 Service Pack 1
 * Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3

-



SYMPTOMS
When you install SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3), SQL Server deploys version 2000.80.380.0 of the Sqlunirl.dll file. Version 2000.80.380.0 is part of Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.7 Service Pack 1 (SP1). The correct version (2000.80.728.0) of Sqlunirl.dll, is not deployed by SQL Server 2000 SP3.



RESOLUTION
To resolve the problem, use one of the following methods:
 * Method 1: Install MDAC 2.7 SP1 Refresh (MDAC 2.7 SP1a).
 * Method 2: Install SQL Server 2000 SP3a.

Note You cannot use Method 1 on computers that are running Microsoft Windows XP. On computers that are running Windows XP, you must use Method 2 to correct the problem that this article describes. For more information, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

Release Manifest for MDAC 2.7 SP1 Refresh (2.71.9040.2)

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This bug was corrected in MDAC 2.7 Service Pack 1 Refresh.



MORE INFORMATION
The SQL Server 2000 SP3 redistribution package includes version 2000.80.728.0 of the Sqlunirl.dll file. However, the SQL Server 2000 SP3 installations incorrectly ignore this file during installation. Therefore, this file is not updated on your computer. The correct version of this file is located in the X86\System folder of the expanded service pack redistribution.
