Ummm... ok... should have read thru the archives... I found the tip about
using 'set textsize 555555555;' to allow you to use TEXT datatypes.
555555555 is a number I came up with trying diffrent options in sqsh.

I've posted this tip on php.net in the Online Manual. Perhaps we should
add it to the FAQ?
