Does the FreeTDS JDBC Driver support...?

Does the FreeTDS JDBC Driver support strings larger than 4,096 characters?

I have been accessing a MS SQL Server 7 database from a linux java
application that is reading a TEXT column from a table.  It reads it
okay using getString(), but it is truncated to 4,096 characters.  Is
there a way to up that limit?  I want to replicate data between SQL 7 and
mysql using a Java application and JDBC.  It's real fast, except I
lose some of the data.  I have rather large text in the columns since
they are web pages (maybe 20-30K).

Note:  getAsciiStream() was unimplemented in the version I was using.

Thanks a lot.

Tim
