DOC: Problems in Predefined Views in Index Server OLEDB Provider (200485)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Index Server 2.0

This article was previously published under Q200485

SUMMARY

For the English and European releases of Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Index Server 2.0, the columns returned by some predefined views are not documented correctly in the Index Server documentation in the Windows NT Option Pack.

MORE INFORMATION

Note that when you issue SELECT * against these predefined views, new columns may be added to the end of the column-list in new product releases and the application should account for this (this is a well-known SQL behavior). For the existing English and European releases:
  • The documentation for EXTENDED_FILEINFO should state that the "Characterization" column is also returned.
  • The documentation for WEBINFO should state that the "Attrib" column is also returned.
  • The DocTitle column is missing from the WEBINFO and EXTENDED_WEBINFO predefined views. Customers can get a fix for this problem as described below.
To fix the problem of the missing DocTitle in WEBINFO and EXTENDED_WEBINFO predefined views, download Service Pack 4 for Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0.
