2011-03-22 2.99
Patch to remove annoying warnings during global destruction,
with tests, from Rafael Kitover.

2005-12-04 2.95
Changed bind_param() to use an optional ado_size attribute.
This is a workaround for the SQLOLEDB bug documented earlier.
Replaced global error variables with handle attributes.
2005-01-30 2.94
Reworked db/st handle attributes:
- fetching all the data of a SELECT sets Active off
- dropped the RowsInCache attribute (ADO doesn't provide this
information and it was confused with RowCacheSize anyway)
- added support for the RowCacheSize attribute
- dropped the User attribute
- deprecated CursorType, Filter, ADO_Columns, Trim_Catalog
(use the corresponding ado_* attributes)
- added ado_ConnectionTimeout and ado_Mode to avoid the abuse of the
ConnectionString
Renamed ADOTEST to DBD_TEST.
2004-10-17 2.93
Implemented do().

Minor changes to the STORE() methods.
Moved more datatype related stuff into DBD::ADO::TypeInfo.

Changed a test in t/14rows.t due to an API change in
Test::More 0.34 (is()'s undef/'' handling).
Removed the $sth->{BadAttributeHere} test from t/21sth.t,
because getting/setting an invalid attribute no longer is
a fatal error in DBI 1.43.

messages, reported by Ed Belisle and Peter Hircock.
These 'success with information' conditions no longer trigger the normal
DBI error handling mechanisms.
2004-01-11 2.84
Reimplemented NULL tests (t/23null.t).
Fixed a DBD::Proxy related bug, reported by Peter Hircock.
The execute() method returned a Win32::OLE::Variant object which
couldn't be restored at the client w/o Win32::OLE.
2003-12-14 2.83
Added notes about Unicode support thanks to Stefan Ram and Jan Dubois.
Rearranged some tests.

tests from t/15func.t).

Modified t/09bind.t to use Test::More.
Added data_sources().
