----------------------------------------------------------------------

This patch provides enhancements and/or defect fixes for the Odbc.DLL
program as released with Eloquence B.07.10. This patch will be 
integrated in the Eloquence B.07.10 release.

Eloquence B.07.10 must be installed before applying this patch.

Severity:
 PE71-0607260: ENHANCEMENT


Patch PE71-0701090
------------------

Platforms: All

* Worked around an incompatibility in the FreeTDS ODBC driver that
  does not support the SQLDescribeParam() ODBC function.

  If the SQLDescribeParam() ODBC function is not supported, the
  data type of a SQL query parameter is unknown. The Odbc.DLL now
  handles this by binding the parameter at a later stage when the
  application defines the data type.

  As a consequence, the application should take care to provide
  an appropriate parameter data type if the FreeTDS ODBC driver
  is used, otherwise a data type mismatch error may result.

* Changed the Windows file version to "7.1.0.7"
