BUG# ODBCSDK2: 2309 (1.02.3231)

SYMPTOMS
========

Calling any of the API's (SQLNumResultCols, SQLDescribeCol or SQLColAttributes),
after executing a SELECT INTO statement with SQLExecDirect, will cause the SQL
Server driver to return SQL_ERROR instead of SQL_SUCCESS. If you call SQLError,
you will get the following:

  SQLSTATE S0001, fNativeError 2714

For example:

1. Set up a SQL Server data source.

2. Log onto this SQL Server and use the pubs database.

3. SQLExecDirect: select * into test from authors. It returns SQL_SUCCESS.

4. Now call SQLNumResultCols. This will return *pcCol = -1 and a return code of
  SQL_ERROR.Calling SQLError yields:

  szSqlState = "S0001", *pfNativeError = 2714, *pcbErrorMsg = 107
  szErrorMsg="[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] There is already
  an object named 'test' in the database."

  SQLNumResultCols should actually return SQL_SUCCESS with *pcCol=0. Calling
  SQLDescribeCol (to describe any column) or SQLColAttributes (for any column)
  will cause the same behavior.

WORKAROUND
==========

Use the SQL Server driver versions prior to 1.02.3231. The problem does not
occur in these earlier versions.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the SQL Server Driver version
1.02.3231. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
