I like to use the UNICODE but in Delphi BDE/ODBC there are a little problems which can't be resolved. The driver worked OK with UNICODE DB only after I built the driver through deleting all SQL*W function name in 'psqlodbc_win32.def' file.
I only try to use the ASCII mode to look for whether the same problem exist.
The zeoslib may be good for Delphi, but it has stopped development a long time.

Thanx.

As I have said a number of times now, DO NOT USE ASCII FOR NON-ASCII DATA!!!

Whilst some apps like pgAdmin may do what you expect, other apps and interfaces may not.

Instead of ASCII, use the correct encoding for your data, or try Unicode if unsure.
