Can anyone tell me the best way to retrieve a large string from a
SQLAnyWhere 9.x database? The column is long varchar and has 310000
characters in it.

Depends heavily on where it is being retrieved and whether that environment
is capable of handling a string of that size.

We're using PowerBuilder 9 and since the datawindow seemed to truncate the
string at around 200k characters, we hoped it was possible to use embedded
SQL.

PB requires SELECTBLOB for this processing. The datawindow is not able to
handle a string of that size nor will standard EMBEDDED SQL statements in
PB.
