I think I've heard of this before... I don't know what BDE is, but I heard about a problem with ODBC and blobs over 500 bytes long. It came down to the ODBC driver of course. That was a year ago, I don't know if it ever got fixed.
 
I hope that helps.

Subject: [NOVICE] Invalid Blob length

I am using a BDE connection from a windows app I'm building to connect to Postgres 7.3.2 running on Redhat on a linux box.
 
When I attempt to Post the dataset which I have loaded with a very large 'text' string, I get the following error:  Invalid Blob length.
 
The field on the table is a type 'text'.  The string that I am loading to the database is about 4,000 ascii characters long. (not really that large).
 
Any ideas as to why I am getting this error?  Is there a setting I need to change on the database?
 
Thanks for your help,
Derrick
