Hi folks-
I'm using Sybase::BLK routines to transfer data from an iso server
to a unicode server using perl5.6.

Should this be possible to do?

This is the message I currently receive:

  Message number: 4847, Severity 16, State 1, Line 1
  Server 'NYTUNV3T002'
  Message String: BCP insert operation is disabled when LONGCHAR capability is turned on and data size is changing between client and server character sets since BCP does not support LONGCHAR yet.


I'm open to experiment and turn of LONGCHAR but not sure how to do that. Any
pointers welcome.

Thanks,
Steve
