Steps to reproduce the problem

Compile and then run the following Java code sample.

import java.sql.*;

public class SQL2K5 {


  public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException
         {
                 try
                 {
                         Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver");
                         Connection conn =
                                 DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlserver://<Server>:1433;DatabaseName=<DatabaseName>","<UserId>","<Password>");

                             Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
                             try { stmt.executeUpdate("drop table t_Repro748"); } catch(Exception ignored) {}
                             stmt.executeUpdate("create table t_Repro748(col1 varchar(50), col2 int)");
                             stmt.executeUpdate("insert into t_Repro748(col1,col2) values('This test has failed!',1)");
                             PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement("update t_Repro748 set col1 = 'This test''s succeeded!',col2=?");
                             pstmt.setInt(1, 3);
                             pstmt.executeUpdate();
                             ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select * from t_Repro748");
                             while (rs.next())
                             System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
                             rs.close();
                             stmt.executeUpdate("drop table t_Repro748");
                             stmt.close();
                             conn.close();
                 }
                 catch(Exception e)
                 {
                         System.out.println(e);
