[freetds] sqsh and msrepl_tran_version

Hi,

I have a database hosted under MS-SQL that I connect to via freetds
(0.60). The DB is replicated to another server and so the magical field
msrepl_tran_version appears in all the tables. I am unable to run a query
that returns this field.

Using sqsh I get no results, just the colomn headings. Using perl/DBI I
get:

error_handler: Data-conversion resulted in overflow.

Every other field is fine.

I don't need to be able to see this field however it stops me saying
SELECT *.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Andrew
