I was trying to use DBI:Sybase with Perl5.005.03
on SCO OpenServer 5.0.5
I got FreeTDS libraries, compiled them with 7.0 option.
Then I compiled and installed DBD::Sybase
I wrote Perl script to connect to MS SQL 7.0 server.
It well retrieved integer and varchar fields from tables,
but when I try to access text fields, I got an error:

Out of memory during "large" request for -2147479552 bytes

Is it possible to work with text fields on MSSQL-7.0
using DBD::Sybase and FreeTDS-0.51 software?
What could be done to solve problem?
Thanks in advance
