Hi,
1. Please excuse my English mistakes � I am a Swiss with Swiss German as
mother language.
My problem is related to using MySQL under Windows98 � I have installed
MySQL 3.23.41
MyODBC 2.50.38-win95
and Microsoft ADO 2.0 is used.
I often get an error �-2147217887� when a string in a VARCHAR- or a
TEXT-field should get replaced by a longer string (of course still within
the VARCHAR-length specification � which means the replacement can not be
done.
A work around is to always enlarge with spaces to a maximum length � but it�
s not really what we are looking for and it�s a problem regarding data which
has been imported from an Access database and therefore do�s not have the
spaces.
The error occurs when the content of the recordset field should get replaced
(before the update command)
I have always had the error when TEXT fields are concerned � in the case of
VARCHAR-fields it happens in some cases and others behave perfectly.
I do not see any bug from my side which could be the reason.
Can someone help me with information about this?
Many thanks
Alain Bebie
