APPLIES TO


This article was previously published under Q200454

SYMPTOMS

Errors may be reported by Visual Basic controls, such as the DataGrid, if schema changes occur in the underlying data source where that data source is an OLE DB Simple Provider (OSP). A schema change is not a change to the data provided, but a change to the structure of that data. For example, adding or removing a column from a table constitutes a schema change.

CAUSE

Visual Basic controls, such as the DataGrid, do not receive the OLE DB notifications required to process schema changes.

RESOLUTION

There are no known workarounds at this time.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
