4.20 | 4.20 | 4.20

MS-DOS | OS/2 | WINDOWS

The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SQL Server Programmer’s Toolkit, version 4.2

BUG# 9497 (4.20.00)

SYMPTOMS

The value -1 will be always be returned when using dbcursorcolinfo() to determine the usertype of a column in a cursored result set. This behavior is not consistent with dbucoltype() which will return the value -1 for system datatypes and the user type for user-defined datatypes.

CAUSE

The DB-Library function dbcursorcolinfo() returns -1 as the usertype for any column in a cursored results set.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in DB-Library version 4.20.00. This problem was corrected in DB-Library version 4.21.00. For more information, contact your primary support provider.
