FIX: ADO GetChunk Method Breaks Blob Data for DBCS

Last reviewed: January 26, 1998
Article ID: Q173611

The information in this article applies to:

ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

In ADO 1.0 running with a double byte character set on a double byte character set platform, GetChunk returns the length of data in bytes, rather than characters.

RESOLUTION

This has been fixed with a QFE for the Msado10.dll. This QFE is available for download from the ADO Web page located at:

   http://www.microsoft.com/data/ado/

The correct version of Msado10.dll that fixes this problem version is version 1.01.31.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. This bug has been corrected with a QFE for ActiveX Data Objects 1.0.
