Description:
------------
When trying to use the MDB_usage_testcase.php with MSSQL 2000, then following problem occurs :

-The insert of CLOB and BLOB seem to work good, whatever the size of the input data. A MSSQL stored procedure let me get the data back.

-The select of the CLOB and BLOB data only return 4096 chars, never more event if the source data was larger.
The MDB_usage_testcase does always work because it uses a 'small' amount of data for testing. If I increase the data, the same problem occurs.

It seem the problem relies only in selecting information from CLOB and BLOB fields.

In MSSQL. I created the BLOB as VARBINARY and the CLOB as TEXT columns.

Reproduce code:
---------------
Into the testcase, the CLOB and BLOB data is generated by doing a loop on ascii characters like in :
for ($code = 32; $code <= 127; $code++) {
$character_lob['Data'] .= chr($code);
}

So the amount of data is rather 'small'. I increased the amount of data by adding a new loop like :
for($i=0; $i<100; $i++){
for ($code = 32; $code <= 127; $code++) {
$character_lob['Data'] .= chr($code);
}
}

Expected result:
----------------
I need to be able to insert CLOB and BLOB data AND to be able to get it back in PHP (or in a file).
If the operation fails, I need to get an error message.

Actual result:
--------------
if the size of the CLOB is > 4096 chars, only 4096 chars are selected from the database.
