Description:
A select from a table having more than 32 fields fails during
SQLDescribeCol on field # 33.

Test:
create a 52 fields table. Insert 1 record. select * from table name.
The error comes out.
I get the error on a table with 52 field using psqlodbc version
6.50.000, Borland C++Builder or Centura.

What's going on?
In my opinion the driver try to allocate space for fields in blocks of
32 items as defined in FLD_INCR (parse.c) . The realloc() works
well but for some reasons the fi pointer seems to get lost during
SQLDescribeCol on column 1.

Quick workaround:
increase FLD_INCR, from 32 to how you need.
Byron will help better....
