Sascha Demetrio ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) reports a bug with a severity of 2 The lower the number the more severe it is. Short Description ESQL-C INSERT Problem Long Description An embedded SQL/C program INSERT operation fails, if a string value submitted through a host variable ends with a backslash character. This bug is not triggered if the offending variable is the last variable in the INSERT statement. Running the test program (below) results in the following output: internal error: SQL error: Too many arguments in line 18. The program works if you remove the trailing backslash from `f1'.
