    Hello I am on a SCO UNIXWARE 7.1.1 box using java version 1.1.7b with the jdk being 1.2.  I am trying to connect to an Postgres database which is in my network.  I am using the pg73jdbc1.jar and have also tried to use the pg73jdbc2.jar to connect.  The following line of code works.

     << OLE Object: Picture (Device Independent Bitmap) >>  Then I try to run the next line and I get an error.
     << OLE Object: Picture (Device Independent Bitmap) >> 
    The error is as follows
    Something unusual has occured to cause the driver to fail. Please report this exception: Exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: sun.io.CharToByteUTF-8
