Article ID: 183568

Article Last Modified on 3/10/2004



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft OLE DB Provider for AS/400 and VSAM 1.0, when used with:
    • Microsoft SNA Server 4.0



This article was previously published under Q183568

SYMPTOMS

When a CCSID is removed from the Host Column Description (HCD) with a text editor, tracing reveals that the column still shows as 037 even though the data type is binary (or another type) and the Data Source CCSID and the Driver CCSID are something other than 037.

When the column description is removed all together, a default of 65535 is shown by tracing, even though the Data Source CCSID and the Driver CCSID are something other than 65535.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft OLE DB Provider for AS/400 and VSAM version 1.00 included with SNA Server version 4.0.

This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 4.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
