Hi Thomas!
I'm happy it works!

IMHO TDS 4.2 should be used only for mssql 6.5 or early Sybase versions.
This version do not support many of recent DB features. You can use TDS7
(supported but both mssql versions), however there should not be
behavior difference (although I fixed some issue with dynamic and TDS8
recently...).
Part of this code is already in 0.61 (disabled by default like CVS
version). I expect to fix all issues (SQLPutData and Sybase text/image
support) for 0.62 and enable code by default...
James expect a stable version (0.62) in September or October but we
haven't fixed roadmap.
