I remember just without access to the bug reports I sent to Rebol, that
Rebol/Command can not handle Streams with Cache at all (an implementation
specific datatype also known as LONGVARBINARY an/or LONGVARCHAR), and
gives
under certain conditions wrong values for numeric datatypes. I don't
remember BIT fields, but I guess there is a problem too.
I will not tell about the results I had trying to access NonStopSQL with
Rebol/Command.
If you want to check how compatible Rebol/Comand is, run "Make Table" in
ODBC Test (ANSI) with your choosen database and try to work with that
table.
