Well, the truth is that ODBC itself is not 64 bit clean!!!
Let me explain why... the best page I found from Microsoft is
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;298678. Here you
can see that SQL_ATTR_PARAM_BIND_OFFSET_PTR of SQLSetStmtAttr is now 64
bit, from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/odbc/ht
m/odbcsqlsetstmtattr.asp you can see that SQL_ATTR_PARAM_BIND_OFFSET_PTR
set SQL_DESC_BIND_OFFSET_PTR of descriptor infos however from
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;298678
SQLSetDescField/SQLGetDescField do not support 64 bit for
SQL_DESC_BIND_OFFSET_PTR... and there are a lot of fields that have this
problem... The only solution would be to try with a ODBC 64, update ms
documentation and unixODBC/iODBC/whatever too...
