Re: pgsql ODBC 8.1.200 MSSQL Migration Errors

Is there a max file size, or max # of attachments, I sent 4 .log files
yesterday, it totaled around 200K, and I havent seen the message come
through. Is there a delay on the list?

If you uncheck it the Text is VarChar (smaller than LongVarChar).

Could you post mylog outputs for this three situations? It would
be better if you try it with max 2 rows (it results in smaller mylog).
