Zeoslib Portal

Hello everybody, I'm new using zeos.

I have a postgre8.1 database and I use delphi6 + zeos 6.6.1 .
I use simlpy Zconnection + Ztable + datasource + dbgrid.
If I open a table all column valus is correct except the text type column value.
If I see the value always is (MEMO).
Why?

What is your advice, what is the solution?

Please help me!

Thank you for your help!

I think because the text type is BLOB type text. Try to use TDBMemo to display it.

I've learned from bitter experience that you need varchar(254) instead of text for most string fields. In Delphi anything bigger is a problem as it's always treated as a Memo field. It also helps when using MS Access to connect to PostgreSQL.

BTW if you just want to view your Memo fields in a dbgrid then see the JVCL data grids. I think either of those will do what you want.

Regards,

Ben
