Subject: Postgres ODBC and SQL_BIT
Content-Type: text


  Hi all,

   Excuse me for a newbie question.

   I am trying to make a PostgreSQL database that must be compatible with
an existing M$Access database. I have some trouble figuring out what
postgres type to use for SQL_BIT. I believe the Access type is called Yes/No
(and is used for checkboxes.) I am also using this in a C/C++ program using
ODBC. My C/C++ program correctly connects to an Access database with these
fields, and I have tried both 'bool' and 'char' as types in the Postgres
database, but none of them works. Is there a standard type for this or do
I have to make my own (and if so, how?) ?


    Thanks in advance,
