Try adding a parse option. Implemented but undocumented in 2.0. Documented in latest version. 2.2? Try parse=none; other values are full & partial?. Beware a bug with parse=none: given 2 uses of the same name, early version 2 PRO*C versions pick the global one in preference to the local one. Can be very confusing when one has to modify supposedly working code and "nothing has changed".
