Ah.

Then please make sure that you have Sybase 12.5 Client Libraries installed, and that your DBD::Sybase module is recent (1.04 or later), and that it was built with the 12.5 libraries.

Otherwise the client side of the connection tells the server side that it doesn't know about "wide" varchar columns, and you get the 255 char truncation.
