Thanks Dave,
I guess there is no down side to allowing the users longer text fields for notes then.
I was testing the libpq driver yesterday doing stress tests from our web app and did not see any leakage.
I also did not see any errors (My test server is not very robust, so I could only get like 4 concurrent users working using the web stress tool from MS before the site itself stopped being happy). I do plan to get a robust server to test on next week and can grab the latest snapshot.
I am a little unclear on the questions about postgres headers, do I just go find the source for that and put the headers in my project.
I am compiling under .net (the version I tested was I believe all the latest and greatest from csv).
I can try switching back to vc++ vrom studio 6 if that is the concensus and use the mak file as you recommended.
It has been several years for me to do compiling from the command line in C++, so I feel more comfortable in the IDE.
I am concerned about trying to convert to unicode and the new drivers again, because last time my tests went smoth (using the non libpq driver) and in production it fell like a punctured blimp. I wasted like 18hours of my time (not totally least I have a current data set in unicode to test with).
I have not tried the new drivers with SQLASCII database, so I will see what it does with that (if its like the non libpq driver it will not display the french properly unless it’s a unicode data base).
I was also unclear what you meant by -4 (SQL_NO_TOTAL)?
Joel

Subject: [ODBC] MaxLongVarcharSize=8190;When I pulled my connectionstring from the dns builder I got
MaxLongVarcharSize=8190;
We had data in our SQL database in text fields longer then 8k.
When a client tried to acces that record we got an error so I upped the MaxLongVarcharSize=8190; to
MaxLongVarcharSize=18190;
This fixed the problem, but I have been told by a conulting group (PCM) that using over 8 k might be causing my errors.
Err, why exactly? As far as I'm aware, that option has always worked properly.
I did change it back to 8k and am a bit subjective on the outcome (we still have been having issues, but not odbc related).
Does anyone know the correct settings for my connection string to use longer then 8k text fields, or do I need to divide the data across multiple records?
Set it to whatever you need. iirc, you can also use -4 (SQL_NO_TOTAL) if you like.
Regards, Dave.
