Data returned by SQL Server ODBC driver is not correct

[woakesd]

I've a query which happily returns a full set of data when run in SQL
Studio but when I do the same query using IIS with Classic ASP
connected via ODBC's SQL Server driver (not the native one) numbers
returned to the record set are filled with 0 and strings are empty
exept for a few rows.

This is happening in IIS 5.1 and IIS 6.0 when the database is on a
seperate machine. With IIS 5.1 and SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition
on the same machine (XP Professional) the query results are as
expected.

I can't even think of what to check or search for!

I noticed that the connection used had a transaction with deletes
pending and so I decided to create a second connection
and lo and behold the query returned the correct results.

The code was working perfectly with SQL Server 2000 so I remain very
concerned and would appreciate some help.

In such case, you need to be a whole lot more specific. You could start
us showing the code that is freaking out for you. Don't forget the
connection string!
