SYMPTOMS

BUG #: 17710 (SQL6.5)

Check constraints defined on quoted identifier columns are generated without quotes by means of Transfer Manager or the Generate SQL Scripts option from SQL Enterprise Manager, even if the Use Quoted Identifiers option is selected. Without these quotes, executing the generated scripts to recreate the objects may result in an error.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, manually modify the generated scripts and add the quotes to constraints defined on the columns.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server versions 6.0 and 6.5. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
