No. Same situation doesn't work againist MSSQL. When you try
"SELECT column FROM table1" where column is type longvarchar it fails
againist MSSQL:
=========================10.1. 2006 22:55:41=========================
 Access Column 'text' failed
Error: 40002 - S1109: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Invalid cursor position
rdoErrors: 0 - S1109: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Invalid cursor position
=========================10.1. 2006 22:55:41=========================

=========================10.1. 2006 22:55:40=========================
Query opened
 Command to Open SQL: OpenResultset('select codi as text from table1', rdOpenKeyset, rdConcurReadOnly)
=========================10.1. 2006 22:55:40=========================

PgSQL backend handles varchar as text in functions. I don't know how to
change it. We don't know text type size. We can't get it from
backend (at least I don't know how). So ADO choose SQLGetData method
to get it. There is limitation to not call SQLGetData after whole
data is getting from column.

I think it's not a bug in psqlodbc.

Workarounds:
1) retype column from text to varchar explicitely
2) turn off Text as LongVarchar in Datasource settings

I hope it helps or someone point that I make mistake somewhere.
