Okay, you're talking a LITTLE over my head there! :-) Is your = suggestion that my Linux locale settings may somehow be causing the conflict? The various mdbtools work okay (apart from one problem - see below), just = not the unixODBC connection. > There is a patch in [1] for mdbtools which could temporally > fix this error. > [1] http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=3D3D2294&atid=3D3D302294 Unfortunately this link seems to send me to a page saying "Error - ArtifactType: Invalid ArtifactTypeID". I tried looking amongst the = various patches on the mdbtools site, but none of them seemed to relate to this problem, and moreover, I couldn't see how to apply the patches. (Yup, = you guessed right, not a C programmer!) My other problem with mdbtool is one that I've mentioned on this list before. I was having it with version 0.5 and I still get it with the = CVS version. Specifically, numbers are being truncated. mdbexport will = chop off any part of the number over 99,999 (eg number going in is = =A3310,000; number coming out is =A310,000). mdbschema suggests that the columns in question are of type Currency (8). Any ideas/solutions? If this problem could be resolved, mdbtools would become significantly more useful to me... Thanks in advance; apart from these issues, the software is a great = help!
