Hi Brian and Michael,

I have got it to install now, 0.45 works much better.
Can you please direct me to any resources on how to call
it via iODBC/PERL?  Am now using freetds to link in DBD-Sybase
by Michael Peppler... am having trouble, won't compile.

Can someone direct me to how I might use freetds with DBD in
PERL?  Should I now use the freetds lib to compile DBD:Sybase,
or is this the wrong approach?

Thanks very much...

Version 0.45 is available for ftp from metalab
(ftp://ftp.metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/ALPHA/freetds/freetds-0.45.tgz)
It should be quite a bit better than previous versions.  New stuff (from
the change log):

- Capabilities added to ctlib code
- Numeric support working
- MONEY to string conversions now support > 32 bit values
- Fixed underread in message handling
- Fixed various buffer overflow problems
- Fixed NULL handling
- Added support for length binding (copied arguement to ct_bind)
- Converted ODBC to use iODBC driver manager
- SQSH 1.7 runs
- PHP 3.0.x with ctlib now runs

I'll be sending announcements to c.o.l.a, comp.databases.sybase, and
freshmeat tonight.  So enjoy and as usual let me know about problems.

Brian
