APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When using the MS SQL Server ODBC driver, SQLSrv32.dll, the
    output extracted from the database does not match the Unicode
    data that was stored in an nchar field.  The DataDirect SQL
    Server ODBC driver produces the expected output.
    

Local fix

  • WTXCQ - WTX00039821
    CH / CH
    Circumvention: None
    

Problem summary

  • Users Affected:
    WebSphere Transformation ODBC Adapter users that are employing
    the native Microsoft SQL Server driver.  Users of the IBM
    Branded SQL Server driver are not affected.
    
    Problem Description:
    The MS SQL Server ODBC driver cannot properly retrieve UNICODE
    data from an nchar field.
    
    Platforms Affected:
    Windows
    

Problem conclusion

  • The WTX ODBC Adapter now processes Unicode data for the native
    Microsoft SQL Server ODBC driver in the same way as it currently
    and successfully does for the IBM branded SQL Server driver.
