Yes. In fact there are 40 fields, the first four ("AccountNo",
"Company", "Contact" and "LastName") appear to be replaced by the
illegal character.&nbsp; The illegal character is 0FH. <br>

Since it goes through the loop OK the first time, it is obviously a
bug, and everything points to the ODBC driver.<br>

There is no "(" field. The "(" is the SQL syntax for enumerating the
fields to be populated.

<pre wrap="">pg_ctl.exe is version 8.2.5.7260
psqlodbc30a.dll is version 8.2.4.0

I downloaded them a couple of days ago, so I have to assume they are the latest.

How do I contact the developers?

P.S. Unfortunately I have already spent way more time on this than I can afford. This was supposed to be a quick evaluation to determine which database to replace the Borland with. I really should move on to looking at MySQL.
