Update:

Yes, but do you fetch a result if you say SELECT 'foo'? Please feel free to provide more information about what you want to do. I then can try to repeat this with my MSSQL...

I could not repeat it (i'm using SQL Server Native Client 10.0):

SELECT * FROM FXSpots;
ID    LHSCurrencyID    RHSCurrencyID    TenorID    BBTicker WMRic    C
+orrespondingSpotID
6    1    1    1    foo    bar    1
7    1    1    1    foo    bar    1
8    1    1    1    foo    bar    1
9    1    1    1    foo    bar    1
10    1    1    1    foo    bar    1
11    1    1    1    foo    bar    1
12    1    1    1    foo    bar    1
