+Summary: String values of length 255 (0xFF) are misinterpreted when running against MS SQL 2000
+
+Description of Problem:
+We are running MS SQL Server 2000 as database engine. If there is a string
+value with length 255 the TDS protocol interpreter interprets this as
+special value. All subsequent data reads are misbehaving or handing.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Set a correct connection string in the attached sample
+2. Compile
+3. Run
+
+Actual Results:
+The string received is null.
+
+Expected Results:
+The string retreived is
+'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'.
+It is 255 characters long.
+
+How often does this happen? 
+Always.
