    I've been experimenting with your MaxDB data provider as a way of possibly eliminating a memory lead that occurs when I use the standard .NET ODBC library.  Everything seems to work fine as long as I'm only communicating to a database hosted in the Windows environment.  But when I attempt to use the data provider to connect to a database running on a Solaris machine an exception (data overflow exception)when attempting to open the connection.

    I tried to track down the error by importing the source code for your provider into the project and debugging and it appears that the header buffer data is in a different format from the Windows database server.  This was using the SAFE mode.

      The MaxDB protocol is byte-order specific. I have access to the little-endian x86 hardware only, so an additional testing with big-endian Solaris/Sparc is required. Could you help me in such a staff?
