-451 Locator buffer size too small.

The locator structure provided for a BYTE or TEXT value in this statement specifies a memory buffer that is smaller than the value (in the loc_bufsize field). The actual size is in loc_indicator. No data was transferred. Revise the program to use a larger buffer, to locate the value in a file instead of memory, or to pass the value in segments through a user-provided read function. Alternatively, you can specify a substring of the value in the SELECT statement. If this is a 4GL program, this error should not occur. If the error recurs, note all circumstances and contact IBM Informix Technical Support.
