FIX: SQL_CUR_USE_IF_NEEDED Does Not Work with 2.0 Drivers (171870)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Open Database Connectivity 3.0
This article was previously published under Q171870
BUG #: 4538 (odbc30)

SYMPTOMS

If SQLSetConnectOption(SQL_ODBC_CURSORS, SQL_CUR_USE_IF_NEEDED) is set and you are using an ODBC 3.0 Driver Manager with a 2.X driver, the ODBC Cursor Library is not loaded. This causes applications that rely on the Cursor Library implementation of ExtendedFetch to fail.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, use SQLSetConnectOption(SQL_ODBC_CURSORS, SQL_CUR_USE_ODBC) to load the ODBC Cursor Library.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Open Database Connectivity version 3.0. This problem has been corrected in U.S. Service Pack 1 for Microsoft Open Database Connectivity, version 3.0. For more information, contact your primary support provider.
