SYMPTOMS
A Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition (SQL Server CE) OLE DB application returns results that are not correct when you define a range to restrict the range of rows that you access from a table and then you access data from the table. Also, when you verify the results, you can see that the first two characters of the string values are used to define the range.
This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
- You use strings that have more than two characters to define the range.
- You bind the range data string as the DBTYPE_WSTR OLE DB data type.
- You use the SetRange method of the IRowSetIndex interface to restrict the range of rows that you access.
CAUSE
The OLE DB Provider for SQL Server CE cannot detect the DBTYPE_WSTR OLE DB data type that the SQL Server CE OLE DB application passes. Therefore, the OLE DB Provider for SQL Server CE uses the fixed length of 4 bytes to bind data. The length of 4 bytes is two characters in the WCHAR data type.

MORE INFORMATION
Steps to apply this hotfix
SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition 1.1
If SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition 1.1 is running on your device or computer, follow these steps to apply the hotfix:
- Locate the existing SQL Server CE 1.0 installation folder on the Windows CE-based device, and then replace the Ssce10.dll file in the folder. The Ssce10.dll file is the SQL Server CE Engine file.
Note
- If you deploy your SQL Server CE OLE DB application from Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, the SQL Server CE files are installed in the \Windows\Sqlce 2.0 folder.
- If you deploy your SQL Server CE OLE DB application from Microsoft eMbedded Visual Tools, the SQL Server CE files are installed in the \Windows folder.
- When you develop an application in a mixed environment that contains Visual Studio .NET and eMbedded Visual Tools, we recommend that you replace the files in both the folders. In practice, however, you can just replace the files in the folder where the application was last deployed.
- Copy the Dllregister.exe file to the folder where the SQL Server CE files are installed on the Windows CE-based device.
- Run the Dllregister.exe file to register the Ssce10.dll file on the Windows CE-based device.
- Perform a soft reset on the Windows CE-based device.
SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition 2.0
If SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition 2.0 is running on your device or computer, follow these steps to apply the hotfix:
- Locate the existing SQL Server CE 2.0 installation folder on the Windows CE-based device, and then replace the following files in the folder:
- Ssce20.dll (SQL Server CE Engine)
- Ssceca20.dll (SQL Server CE Client Agent)
Note
- If you deploy your SQL Server CE OLE DB application from Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, the SQL Server CE files are installed in the \Windows\Sqlce 2.0 folder.
- If you deploy your SQL Server CE OLE DB application from Microsoft eMbedded Visual Tools, the SQL Server CE files are installed in the \Windows folder.
- If you develop an application in a mixed environment that contains Visual Studio .NET and eMbedded Visual Tools, it is a best practice to replace the files in both the folders. In a typical situation, however, you can replace the files in the folder where the application was last deployed.
- Copy the Dllregister.exe file to the folder where the SQL Server CE files are installed on the Windows CE-based device.
- Run the Dllregister.exe file to register the Ssce20.dll file and the Ssceca20.dll file on the Windows CE-based device.
- Perform a soft reset on the Windows CE-based device.
- On the computer that is running Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS), replace the Sscesa20.dll (SQL Server CE Server Agent) file in the appropriate virtual directory.
- Restart IIS on the computer that is running IIS. To do this, run the iisreset command at a command prompt.
