Errcode -1268 ** HELP **

Problem : Receiving error code -1268 when selecting field which is NOT a DATETIME or INTERVAL field. Description : on a table made up by 110 fields total 616 Bytes, I select a CHAR(10) field which is the primary key, to check for existance : $prepare aq1 from "select st_hkontonr from ks_hkonto where st_hkontonr = ?"; $declare q1 cursor for aq1; . . $open q1 using $Key; $fetch q1 into $Out; /* Error 1268 here !! */ there is only ONE DATETIME field in the table, and I DON't select it. This should not (IMHO) generate errcode -1268 eh?? Can anyone Help ???.
