Hi! The ODBC driver is PostgreSQL Unicode 8.01.02.00 from 31 of Jan of 2006. I'm developing in VC++ 6.0 and I use SQLDescribeCol to determine the type of each field. When I have a field in a database table defined as CHAR(100) the function gives me -8 as type value! Is this normal? Plus, if I change to CHAR(255) it returns -10!! this is the 9c8-c74 EXIT SQLDescribeCol with return code 0 (SQL_SUCCESS) HSTMT 00C52DD0 UWORD 2 UCHAR * 0x0012E2D8 6] "f_name" SWORD 50 SWORD * 0x0012E2D0 (6) SWORD * 0x0012E41C (-8) SQLULEN * 0x0012E2C8 (100) SWORD * 0x0012E420 (0) SWORD * 0x0012E2CC (1) ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
