===Progress Datatype Issue===

When accessing a Progress Database using BRIO where the Progress Database does contain fields with the type "mandatory" - you will encounter the following problem : 

{{{
brioqry         144-600    EXIT  SQLExecDirect  with return code -1 (SQL_ERROR)
        HSTMT               01D91E10
        UCHAR *             0x00DE70A4 
        SDWORD                     0

        DIAG [S1090] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Invalid string or buffer
length (0)
}}}


Changing the field type from mandatory solves the issue.
