Extended Attributes don't seem to be working correctly when connected to SQL 
Server 2005 via ADO.NET.

Here's how to reproduce the problem:
Connect to a SQL Server database via an ADO.NET Profile in the PowerBuilder 
database painter. Add a new Edit Style (under Extended Attributes) that uses 
the default Style "Edit". Check the "Auto Selection" checkbox and click OK 
to save the new Edit Style.

Open the new Edit Style. The "Auto Selection" checkbox should still be 
checked. Now click OK to close the Edit Style once again.

Open the Edit Style again and this time the "Auto Selection" checkbox will 
no longer be checked (for me at least). Any further changes to any of the 
checkboxes don't appear to stick.

The pbe_flag in the pbcatedt table appears to be getting updated when making 
additional changes to the checkboxes, but the Edit Style window no longer 
displays the state of pbe_flag.

The real problem here is that we have an application that makes heavy use of 
the SyntaxFromSQL function in order to create dynamic DataWindows. 
Unfortunately, most of the settings specified in the Extended Attributes 
aren't getting applied to the DataWindows when they're created.

Thanks,

Damon 

Do you have a support agreement with Sybase? This looks like a time to open
a case.

No, I don't have a support agreement with Sybase.  However, I did open a 
case (#11353678) through Case-Express but I believe these cases are a lower 
priority to Sybase than the alternate support routes.
