Re: Connector/ODBC 3.51.13

[Martin J. Evans]

That log has a failing call to SQLSetDescField for the OctetLengthPtr
presumably because myodbc 3 does not support descriptors. From what Peter said
in previous posting this sounds like it will be in v 5. Whatever
"ElectronicBills" is, it would appear it is ignoring this failure and
continuing.
