Problem Note 52915: When you join Microsoft SQL Server tables with SAS/ACCESS® Interface to OLE DB, columns of type GUID might be incorrectly retained

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

When you use SAS/ACCESS Interface to OLE DB to join Microsoft SQL Server tables, GUID type columns might be retained when they should not be. This issue occurs only when the PRESERVE_GUID=YES option is used in the LIBNAME statement referencing the Microsoft SQL Server database.

Example

TableA         TableB
------         ------
   NumCol         NumCol   GuidCol
   ------         ------   -------
     10              8      Guid1 
     11              9      Guid2 
     12             10      Guid3

Performing an SQL left join on the two tables creates the following incorrect result set:

   NumCol    GuidCol
   ------    -------
     10       Guid3
     11       Guid3
     12       Guid3

There should be no GuidCol values for NumCol values 11 and 12.
