ISSUES ADDRESSED IN THIS UPDATE PACK

This update resolves two issues with the MSSQL driver.

* Unable to connect with Empty Username/Password:

In the previous driver, trying to connect with an
empty Username/Password resulted in an SQL error.

* Parameter binding into a VARCHAR column inserted an
extra trailing ASCII 0 character

Attempting parameter binding inserts into a
VARCHAR column would insert an ASCII 0 character at
the end of the data. For example, in a table with
Code defined as VARCHAR(12) and Description defined
as VARCHAR(50) the following code segment
demonstrates the problem.

sql.CommandText := 'INSERT INTO User1 (Code,
Description) ' + 'VALUES (:Code, escription)';
sql.Params.ParamByName('Code').DataType := ftString;
sql.Params.ParamByName('Description').DataType :=
ftString;
sql.ParamByName('Code').AsString := 'TEST';
sql.ParamByName('Description').AsString := 'This is a
test';
sql.ExecSQL;

In the above example, sql is a TSQLDataSet or
TSQLQuery.

Any subsequent SELECT's, like SELECT * FROM User1
where Code ='TEST' would fail to find the record.

Installing this Update resolves these issues.
