Steps to Reproduce the Behavior
-------------------------------
On a computer that has Visual Studio .NET and the OLE DB Provider for Visual
FoxPro installed (version 7.0.0.9262 or 7.0.0.9465), follow these steps:
1. In Visual Studio .NET, create a new Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Console
Application project.
2. Replace the default Module1 code with the following:
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Module Module1
Sub Main()
' Demonstrates a problem with the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro
' interacting with the OleDbDataAdapter object and empty FoxPro memo fields.
Dim ThisDir As String = System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
Dim oConn As New OleDbConnection("Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Data Source=" & ThisDir)
Dim oCMD As New OleDbCommand()
Dim oDA As New OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT fldMEMO FROM Q326544", oConn)
Dim oDS As New DataSet()
' Create a Visual FoxPro table with one memo field, and then insert a blank record.
With oCMD
.Connection = oConn
.Connection.Open()
.CommandType = CommandType.Text
.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE Q326544 (fldMEMO M)"
.ExecuteNonQuery()
.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Q326544 VALUES ([])"
.ExecuteNonQuery()
.Connection.Close()
End With
Try
oDA.Fill(oDS)
Catch oER As Exception
MsgBox(oER.Message)
End Try
oDA.Dispose()
oConn.Close()
oConn.Dispose()
oCMD.Dispose()
End Sub
End Module
3. Press F5 to run the project.
