that it works with a different (my web) MariaDB database, I'm sure
this is a configuration issue.  Question is: where do I find/set that?

His network OS is Windows 2016 Server.  My web database is using a
Linux OS iirc.

Here's the weird fix: instead of using a MEDIUMTEXT field, it worked just fine when I changed it to TEXT fields. Now MEDIUMTEXT is supposed to handle LARGER #s of characters, but in this case, just TEXT should suffice.

Still...wonder why the ODBC (originally 3.51, then I upgraded to the latest 64-bit MariaDB driver) has a problem with MEDIUMTEXT on this Windows 2016 Server? My other database (where no issues at all) operates on a Debian Linux OS.

Thoughts?
