Trying to read MS Access MEMO fields (these are large (>255 chrs) text fields) fails under 4.3.0RC3 in an Eval'd string whereas they work fine under 4.2.3.

The error message returned is:

Warning: SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access 97 Driver]Invalid cursor position; no keyset defined , SQL state S1109 in SQLGetData in c:\InetPub\php\classes\member.php(91) : eval()'d code on line 1

Below is an example of code that causes the problem. The $xFields var is a CSV list of fields in a table. If only the details field is a MEMO type then only this will fail. All other types of field (string or numeric) do not appear to have a problem. The error line will point to the line containing the 'eval' function call.

################CODE##################

$xFields = "ref,name,details";

function coreLoad ($cur)
{
  global $xFields;

  $flds = explode (",", $xFields);

  for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof ($flds); $i++)
  {
    $str = '$this->' . $flds [$i] . ' = odbc_result ($cur, ' . ($i + 1) . ');';

    eval ($str);
  }
}

################END OF CODE##############

The connection to the MS Access database is through a standard ODBC connection via the Windows Control Panel. No other modules have been compiled into PHP either in 4.2.3 or 4.3.0RC3.
