I can't claim that this was an ingenious design decision back then as it is too long ago to remember for sure. But in retrospect I feel what you describe here offers users a choice of how to treat a single char. Either as a tiny integer (CHAR) or as a one-byte text [CHAR(1)]. It is probably best to keep this behaviour. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ libdbi-users mailing list libdbi-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libdbi-users
