[problem with select]

Maybe the ODBC-trace might help. Please add

tracefilename=<your trace file>

to the DSN-entry.


FYI, with 64-bit some data types changed in the ODBC interfaces (e.g. SQLLEN is on 64-bit machines a 64-bit integer). See for example SQLGetData:

SQLGetData(SQLHSTMT StatementHandle,
           SQLUSMALLINT ColumnNumber, SQLSMALLINT TargetType,
           SQLPOINTER TargetValue, SQLLEN BufferLength,
           SQLLEN *StrLen_or_Ind);


Does the application and the driver manager handle it properly in the 64-bit environment?
