NAME

       DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ODBC::ACCESS - Support specific to MS Access over ODBC

DESCRIPTION

       This class implements support specific to Microsoft Access over ODBC.

       It is a subclass of DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ODBC and DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ACCESS, see those classes for more information.

       It is loaded automatically by by DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::ODBC when it detects a MS Access back-end.

       This driver implements workarounds for "IMAGE" and "MEMO" columns, and DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::DateTime support for "DATETIME" columns.

EXAMPLE DSN

	 dbi:ODBC:driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)};dbq=C:Users
kitoverDocumentsaccess_sample.accdb

TEXT
/IMAGE/MEMO COLUMNS
       Avoid using "TEXT" columns as they will be truncated to 255 bytes. Some other drivers (like ADO) will automatically convert "TEXT" columns
       to "MEMO", but the ODBC driver does not.

       "IMAGE" columns work correctly, but the statements for inserting or updating an "IMAGE" column will not be cached, due to a bug in the
       Access ODBC driver.

       "MEMO" columns work correctly as well, but you must take care to set LongReadLen to "$max_memo_size * 2 + 1". This is done for you
       automatically if you pass LongReadLen in your connect_info; but if you set this attribute directly on the $dbh, keep this limitation in
       mind.
