Reading DBF file

[S Shulman]

Hi

I am trying to read a dbf file using OLEDB but I can't get the entire field.
I suspect that it is because the OLEDB measures the size of the field
assuming it is UNICODE characters and then it reads that number of
characters (another thing that supports that that when Access or SQL Server
read import this table they set the field size to the same amount of
characters that actually return)

Thank you

Hi S.,

Please post the code you're using to update. Describe the fields (type,
size) that are wrong and what the actual and returned values are.
