SUMMARY

The OLE DB provider for DB2, which is included with Host Integration Server 2000, supports calls to DB2 stored procedures. However, the OLE DB provider for DB2 does not support the return of single or multiple result sets when calling stored procedures. To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Host Integration Server 2000.

MORE INFORMATION

The OLE DB provider for DB2 has been updated to support the return of single result sets when calling DB2 stored procedures. The return of multiple result sets is not yet supported.

Additionally, the following is a list of some other limitations of using the OLE DB provider for DB2 to call stored procedures:

Binding output parameters of type REAL or DOUBLE is not supported.
Calling stored procedures when the parameter values contain CHAR Mixed or GRAPHIC (DBCS) data types is not supported.
Calling a non-existent procedure causes an error.

These are listed in the Host Integration Server 2000 Online Developer's Guide.

A supported feature that modifies the product's default behavior is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to modify the behavior that this article describes. Apply it only to systems that specifically require it. This feature may receive additional testing. Therefore, if the system is not severely affected by the lack of this feature, we recommend that you wait for the next Microsoft Host Integration Server 2000 service pack that contains this feature.

To obtain this feature immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support Services. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services telephone numbers and information about support costs, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
