Yes, I've had several people mention this and that did the trick. Thanks to all that replied. Looks like a simple strlen() works fine, but I'll have to look into the UNICODE concerns that some people had about Windows and MFC. As I was looking into finding some sample code, I found that /src/bin/psql/copy.c uses the older, deprecated commands of PQputline and PQendcopy. -Tony ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
