解决SQL Server 2000中讨厌的Bug

1．异常信息

通过SQL Server Enterprise Manager来修改table结构时，出现如下异常：ODBC error： [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid cursor state

2．工作环境：

MS SQL Server 2004 SP3a

SQL Server Hot fix 8.00.0859 （当时是为了修复Microsoft Reporting Services V1.0的bug才安装的）

Windows Server 2003

3．查看Select @@Version 运行结果：

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.859 (Intel X86) Sep 18 2003 12：53：45 Copyright (c) 1988-2003 Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790： )

Microsoft已经提供了对应的hotfix来解决上述问题，不过需要联系Microsoft Support Services来获取hotfix。我没有在网上发现该hotfix的下载。

目前，Microsoft SQL Server 2004 Service Pack 4.0（处于测试阶段）还没有正式推出，郁闷。只好通过Query Analyzer使用SQL Script脚本来完成，如：

ALTER TABLE AppRemotingLogger ALTER COLUMN Message VARCHAR(800)

（修改数据表AppRemotingLogger的Message字段）

Updated：
