I try to access an Microsoft Access Database with the sample programm ADOSample.c in OriginC/Samples/COM. In general it works fine, but I have several fields of type (205 = adLongVarBinary) which I cannot read in. If I read and convert it to a string, out_str just gives a very short (4 charater) string.
If the column type is "Text & Numeric", you can put a string of up to 203 characters into a cell. Origin currently dose not support putting binary data into a cell, but that is something we can consider adding.
