Does or has anyone used the tdbc odbc library? I had never used this up until a couple of days ago .. I'm connecting to a commercial Pervasive SQL database, I establish the connection just fine .. I did a very simple SELECT query where all of the input was just hard coded stuff that returned only one row of one table, and that went just fine, this was using a foreach command on the resultset of the statement. So within the foreach loop I did some trimming and formatting of the returned values, everything's working peach, so I think I've got the hang of how things work and am ready to move on to building some real world SQL commands. So I build a SELECT query that pulls in the neighborhood of several hundred rows, and the foreach loop shows me the first two rows, then errs with a "number out of range" message. No matter what I do, if a SELECT line pulls two or less rows, things work, anything more than two rows, and I get crapped on.

This is at work, so it's Activestate TCL 8.6 on windows ten. I'd try it from here on a linux box to see if it's just a big in the windows version, but I can't access the database server. Although it just occurred to me that I could load up something on a VM at work. In any case, I'm hoping that someone out there might have been through this, and can shed some light on what I'm doing wrong.
