The attached archive, includes logs from the 2.5 & v3 drivers from my test
program (also included so you can see what it's doing). These logs are also
relevant to the other problem I reported (subject:  .NET  ODBC Data
Provider).

Parse Statement doesn't do it. It may be a .NET thing though - maybe it only
gets set if I open a table by name rather than using an SQL query which I
don't think I can do with the ODBC provider (.NET has a common DataSet class
which contains disconnected data from one or more tables in one or more data
sources - the data is put there by a DataAdaptor, for which there are OleDB,
Odbc & Sqlclient variants).
