Something is not translating CHAR values correctly -- all the fields that you "see" are not char values.

Have no idea off hand *why* this would be ... character encoding differences maybe ?

Subject: [SQL] delphi access question?
One of my applications is in Delphi 5.
I just went to change it over to Postgres (from MSSQL).
I am using odbc and something a bit odd is happening.
I can run a sql statement ok, even in sql builder I see all the fields.
But the returned result set appears to be missing some of the fields.
So my table is
CREATE TABLE tbltranslations
(
transnumber int4 NOT NULL,
clientnum char(4) NOT NULL,
lastran timestamp,
lastupdated timestamp,
firstrowhasheading char(1),
fixed_delimited char(1),
tblname varchar(50),
delimeter char(1),
textqualifier char(1),
active bool,
direction char(1),
client_filename varchar(250),
ftp_account int4,
fixedlenghthascomma char(1),
ftp_path varchar(250),
ftp_filename varchar(50),
fieldname_forid_on_insert varchar(50)
)
but only fields
transnumber
lastran
lastupdated
active
and ftp_account
show up as fields I can add to the result.
Any ideas?
