BUG: S1093 Error on SQLDescribeParam of System Stored Procedure

Last reviewed: May 5, 1997
Article ID: Q155445

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SQL Server, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

If an ODBC application prepares a call to a SQL Server system stored procedure (such as sp_help or sp_configure) and then calls SQLDescribeParam, the following error message appears:

   szSqlState = "S1093", *pfNativeError = 0
   szErrorMsg="[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]
   Invalid parameter number"

WORKAROUND

Use SQLProcedureColumns to determine the parameters for the stored procedure.
