Thanks Wayne, that's very useful! My only remaining question is what versions of SQL Server (engine and SSMS) you are running. I guess they are similar to mine - and you have patched your SSMS as well as the server - since our results agree so well.isql eh? :blink:
Servers:
SQL 2008: 10.0.1600.22
SQL 2005: 9.00.4053.00
SQL 2000: 8.00.2055
SSMS 2008: 10.0.1600.22
SSMS 2005: 9.00.4035.00
SQL Query Analyzer 8.00.2039
I'll edit this to include SSMS 2005 later... have to get that from a co-worker.
