Problem with error messages in VC++ 2005

I am using PostgreSQL version 8.0 with VC++ 2005.

I have no problem accessing and getting data but I am having problems with
getting errors messages correctly.

Whenever there is an error and I invoke SQLGetDiagRec to get the error
message I get semi-garbled data.

The message is obviously there as it is about 80% right. However, there are
random characters sprinkled about in the message.

For example “Error: Table my_table does not exist”

Comes out as “Error:2 Table my abl do ot exis “

In the middle there are all sorts of weird characters.

I have tried changing and upgrading the ODBC driver but nothing seems to
help.

I am now using version 8.02.01.00 but to no avail.

Anyone had similar problems?
