[SQL]

[David J. R. Brook]

I'm trying to use the 'bit' and 'varbit' datatypes in a
      table. The demo file 'varbit.demo.sql' runs fine but
when I
      try to INSERT data into the table I get a message:

      ERROR: zpbit_in: bit string of size 8 cannot be
written into
      bits(1)

      I can add data to the table through the console a la
demo
      file though. I can also write one binary digit (i.e.
'B1')
      using INSERT but I cannot write longer bit strings -
neither
      can I find a way to make the type of the column to be
a
      longer bit string. Any suggestions?

      (I get the same problem with the varbit data type)
