Re: Invalid Blob length

I think I've heard of this before... I don't know what BDE is, but I heard
about a problem with ODBC and blobs over 500 bytes long. It came down to the
ODBC driver of course. That was a year ago, I don't know if it ever got
fixed.

I hope that helps.

Subject: [NOVICE] Invalid Blob length

I am using a BDE connection from a windows app I'm building to connect to
Postgres 7.3.2 running on Redhat on a linux box.

When I attempt to Post the dataset which I have loaded with a very large
'text' string, I get the following error: Invalid Blob length.

The field on the table is a type 'text'. The string that I am loading to
the database is about 4,000 ascii characters long. (not really that large).

Any ideas as to why I am getting this error? Is there a setting I need to
change on the database?

Thanks for your help,
Derrick
