SYMPTOMS
========

When you share a CDatabase object between multiple threads and use the SQL
Server ODBC driver version 2.65.0240 or later, you may receive the following
error message:

  SQLSTATE: S1000
  [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Connection is busy with the results for
  another hstmt

When you use the Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.6 driver, you may
receive the following error message:

  State:37000,Native:16909,Origin:[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL
  Server]
  sp_cursorfetch: The cursor identifier value provided (1) is not valid

CAUSE
=====

This error occurs because of a timing conflict in the SQL Server ODBC driver or
MDAC 2.6 driver. If two threads are in the process of calling SQLPrepare(),
followed by a SQLExecute() call, this error may occur.

RESOLUTION
==========

Put CRecordset::Open() calls within a critical section to guarantee that only
one thread is executing a SQL command on the connection at a given time.

On the SQL Server back end, it is recomended that you use different CDatabase
objects for different threads.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft SQL Server driver.



MORE INFORMATION
================

Following is a code sample that can cause this error to occur:

Sample code
-----------

     void CDBProblemDlg::OnDoDatabase()
     {
        //Open connection to database
        m_DB.Open();
        CSQLRecordSet rs(&m_DB);

        StartThread(&m_DB);

        if ( rs.Open(CRecordset::dynaset) )
        {
            .
            .
            .
            SQLRecordSet.Close();
        }
     }

        void StartThread(CDatabase * pDB)
     {
        AfxBeginThread(InitThreadProc, pDB, THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
     }

     UINT CDBProblemDlg::InitThreadProc( LPVOID pParam )
     {
        CDatabase* pDB = (CDatabase*) pParam;
        if (pDB->IsOpen())
        {
           CSQLRecordSet SQLRecordSet(pDB);

           if (SQLRecordSet.Open(CRecordset::dynaset))
           {
              .
              .
              .
              SQLRecordSet.Close();
           }
        }
     }
