If there a is a LF(char(10) inside a string and the B7=1, the string returned by the driver will cut off 1 character for each LF(chr(10) inside the string.
If the B7=0 the full string si returned.

Field='ABC (LF)123'

Ex: B7=1
Field='ABC (LF)12'
EX B7=0:
Field='ABC (LF)123'

Any idea why a chr(10) (LF) in a field would cause this?

Contradictory options TextAsLongVarchar=1 and B7=0 are specified.
Psqlodbc drivers eat the tokens one by one and overwrite the former option by the latter one after all.

Changing to B7=1?
