SUMMARY

While using ADO to access a Sybase database table using an ADO server-side cursor (adUseServer), the last trailing zero in a numeric field is truncated. This happens while accessing the Sybase database through the Microsoft OLE DB provider for ODBC using the Intersolv 3.11 32-bit Sybase ODBC driver (3.11.00.0).

MORE INFORMATION

To avoid the truncation, use ADO's client-side cursor (adUseClient).
