This sounds like a bug that has occurred in a lot of backends. With B3
the drivers went to a new optimised open technique. It uses standard ODBC
calls, but in an unusual combination that appears to break some backends.
So a switch has been added to turn off this optimisation and go back to
the slower B2 system. You use this you add /FASTCOLUMNFETCH=FALSE to the
driver string. Alternatively, you can avoid the problem in B3, B4 and
Gold by using the /VERIFYVIASELECT=TRUE driver string. This uses a
potentially less efficient system used by CW2.
