[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Invalid cursor stateevery time I save in enterprise ma

Hi,
every time I save after a change in any table through enterprise nmanager
I receive this error:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Invalid cursor state
If I generate a script instead-of saving directly
and if I execute this script through the query analyzer all works fine!
My windows 2003 is english
my SQL Server is french
my default language is french
I've found the same error on another server which is in the same config.
any idea?
thanks.

So why not use scripts in Query Analyzer? IMHO, there are only a few cases
where Enterprise Manager should be used...

When I update or add a column, I can do this very quickly in enterprise

using query analyzer is an overhead for me :-)

Okay, so is there something especially painful about learning them? It
certainly can't HURT you to have this knowledge; surely someday you will
have to connect to SQL Server without using a GUI as a crutch...|||There are different combinations of service packs that lend
themselves to having this error more often - e.g between
8.00.0859 and 8.00.0875 you can get the error more often,
version 8.00.0927 or no SP3 version 8.00.0194 you don't,
etc.
The bottom line is what Aaron keeps telling you - you should
be using Query Analyzer for this type of thing. It was
designed more for this type of activity.

Hotfix. Only certain ones are available without contacting PSS directly.
http://www.aspfaq.com/2160

http://www.aspfaq.com/
(Reverse address to reply.)|||Hot fix for the following:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=839688
But then you will be managing hot fixes based upon not
wanting to use Query Analyzer for writing T-SQL to maintain
your databases. Doesn't seem like a good path to go down.
So if another slammer comes out, would your company want you
to patch it and use T-SQL for table changes or would they
want you to leave the box vulnerable so you could use
Enterprise Manager to make all your table changes?

then delete the first table and rename the temporary table to the right name

or you can use enterprise manager to change the order and ask to generate
the SQL statement instead-of saving the change. then execute this syntax.
