I'm using the last version of RemoteDB and Aurelius.
My problem is: if in the mssql database there are 'text' and 'varchar' fields, in the client dataset these fields have two bytes for character instead of one
For example:
HELLO -> H #0 E #0 L #0 L #0 O #0
With 'ntext' and 'nvarchar' fields, RemoteDB works correctly.
what more information do you need?
Thank you
Best regards
Can you please provide more details about how that content is coming from the server to the client?
Thank you for your reply
I write an example of the content of field (asstring) in the dataset client
in MSSQL the field is defined like this:
in SQLManagement the right value is:
In Aurelius I set :
AureliusCapital.DriverName:='MSSQL'; AureliusCapital.Params.Text:='Server=xxxx'#$D#$A'Password=xxxx'#$D#$A'UserName=xxxxl'#$D#$A'Database=xxx'#$D#$A
Do you need other information?
Thank you
Best Regards
Create the field as ftWideMemo, and read it using AsWideString property.
Manually changing field type in client dataset works good! 
I don't use permanent fields, so FieldDefs is generated from RemoteDB (in InitFieldDefsFromProvider?) is it possible that is automatically changed?
Thank you
Best Regards
It's actually just mirroring the data type being created at server-side. Maybe there is some configuration in your database component (are you using FireDAC?) that could create the fields as wide memos?
In RemoteDB server now I am using your native driver MSSQL (aurelius).
I can't change field type from text into ntext in my database because is not in my manage.
I just tried ADO and Firedac and they work correctly.
From my test is better your native driver (MSSQL)
The worse is ADO
FireDac vs ADO performance is better 10-15%
MSSQL native vs ADO is fast 30-40%
This is why I prefer your driver.
I have only this problem with MSSQL native.
My question is: what can I do to not send fields 'text' like wideMemo?
Best regards.
I'm finding this strange. Is this Windows platform? Are you able to provide a sample project reproducing the issue?
