SUMMARYAn ODBC application using a SQL Server driver earlier than version 1.01.2920 causes a general protection fault (GP-fault) when you attempt to connect to a SQL Server database with more than 50 user-defined data types. SYMPTOMS
When an ODBC application tries to connect to a SQL Server data source that
has more than 50 user-defined data types, it causes a general protection
fault in the module SQLSRVR.DLL. SQL Server has two different kinds of data
types: system defined and user-defined. System-defined data types are those
that are defined by SQL Server, such as CHAR, INT, DATETIME, and so on.
User-defined datatypes allow the user to define their own data types in
terms of the system data types. For example, you can have a data type
called EMPID which maps to CHAR(5).
RESOLUTIONThis problem has been corrected in SQL Server driver version 1.01.2920, and is available from your primary support provider. To install the new driver, run the setup program from the update disk and reinstall the SQL Server driver. After installing the driver, make sure you run the INSTCAT.SQL script that is contained in the update disk. Additional query words: 1.01.2807 ODBC VB data type gpf
