in reply to Calling a Sybase Procedure with NUL in a parm

Perl won't do anything with the NUL's, but something written in C will. Like DBD::Sybase, and whatever Sybase libraries (dblib or ctlib) you are using.

Are you sure your Sybase client libraries can handle this?

    CTlib can handle embedded nul bytes. However, DBD::Sybase does indeed assume NULL terminated strings for CHAR/VARCHAR parameters (which could be construed as a bug, I suppose).
