How can I obtain the Hotfix noted in Article 831997.
After I applied 8.00.0859, I am now getting the
error "Invalid Cursor State" when in design mode of the
Enterprise Manager.
Thanks!
Did you actually need to apply 8.00.859? I've found that in most cases
people applied this hotfix merely because it was available to the general
public. The reason hotfixes aren't announced and made more readily
accessible is because they aren't fully regression tested, and aren't immune
to issues like this one.
In any case, you can get 878 from http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=838166
...
Also, see http://www.aspfaq.com/2515 ... if you stop using Enterprise
Manager for data/schema manipulation, amazingly, the invalid cursor state
error goes away.

Hotfix fixed my SQL Server
I've applied "Hotfix 8.00.0859", which I downloaded from the Microsoft site,
and now I get the "Invalid cursor state" error described here
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=831997
The article says there is another hotfix that fixes what the previous hotfix
screwed up, and one should contact "Microsoft Product Support Services" to
get the new hotfix, and give a hyperlink to support where you can pay to
call MS, etc, which I don't really intend to do.
Anyone knows of a better way to get this new hotfix, have a link to it
maybe? I've downloaded the previous one, don't understand why this one is so
special.
Thanks.> give a hyperlink to support where you can pay to
> call MS, etc, which I don't really intend to do.
I suppose you've never done this before. If it's a bug in the product, and
they provide you with a fix, you are not charged for the call. In any
case...
> maybe? I've downloaded the previous one, don't understand why this one is

Most hotfixes are not freely available because, as the article always
states, it is only intended to fix the specific problem for those sites that
are having the problem (e.g., not everyone and their brother). The reason
the hotfixes aren't handed out to everyone is because they are not fully
regression tested, and could possibly introduce other problems (e.g.
"Invalid Cursor State").
In your case, there is a newer hotfix that is publicly available. See the
end of http://www.aspfaq.com/2515
I would *STRONGLY* recommend, in the future, that you do not apply hotfixes
just because they are available to download from the Microsoft web site.

Actually I've been programming with SQL Server for 10 years now and this was
my first hotfix ever, applied last Sunday after fighting a Report Server
install for about six hours, and someone that had the problem gave the
advice. In the end it was something else, but after six hours you don't ask
questions any more, I was ready for a total SQL Server re-install.

and now I get the "Invalid cursor state" error described here

The article says there is another hotfix that fixes what the previous hotfix
screwed up, and one should contact "Microsoft Product Support Services" to
get the new hotfix, and give a hyperlink to support where you can pay to
call MS, etc, which I don't really intend to do.
Anyone knows of a better way to get this new hotfix, have a link to it
maybe? I've downloaded the previous one, don't understand why this one is so
special.
Thanks.> give a hyperlink to support where you can pay to

I suppose you've never done this before. If it's a bug in the product, and
they provide you with a fix, you are not charged for the call. In any
case...

Most hotfixes are not freely available because, as the article always
states, it is only intended to fix the specific problem for those sites that
are having the problem (e.g., not everyone and their brother). The reason
the hotfixes aren't handed out to everyone is because they are not fully
regression tested, and could possibly introduce other problems (e.g.
"Invalid Cursor State").
In your case, there is a newer hotfix that is publicly available. See the
end of http://www.aspfaq.com/2515
I would *STRONGLY* recommend, in the future, that you do not apply hotfixes
just because they are available to download from the Microsoft web site.

Actually I've been programming with SQL Server for 10 years now and this was
my first hotfix ever, applied last Sunday after fighting a Report Server
install for about six hours, and someone that had the problem gave the
advice. In the end it was something else, but after six hours you don't ask
questions any more, I was ready for a total SQL Server re-install.
