Обсуждение: ODBC and Boolean
Hi, I am using postgres8.1 on a Debian etch machine and am trying to port an access database to postgres. I have installed the latest ODBC driver on WinXP (psqlodbc-08_02_0200.zip) and most things work OK. The most problematic are the checkboxes. At first they work OK but after a while when setting a checkbox we get an error that seems to keep on happening. "The field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add. Try inserting or pasting less data" Once it gets in this state it seems to stick. Even tried rebooting. I believe that the query is not getting past the ODBC driver as I can see no activity on the back end. Any help appreciated. -- Grahame Jordan Glass Expansion 15 Batman St West Melbourne VIC 3003 PH: +61 3 9320 1111 FAX: +61 3 9320 1112

I used the recommendation from this link and ever since I have not had any problems linking boolean fields to checkboxes. http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/2006-09/msg00103.php When I read threads like this, it makes me wish I know postgresql a whole lot better. :) Regards, Richard Broersma Jr.

The problem was that we didn't refresh the tables. All well now.
