I haven't used the BDE in a while, however it looks like a problem with character sets.  That is BDE is using one character set and PG is using another, hence the "invalid" characters.  Check the postgreSQL documentation on localization to see how to make your server recognize other language (character) sets.

One other question, does this happen only with varchar and only with that one column, or can you duplicate the problem with character type in another column?
