When accessing a cell of type "ntext" (UNICODE UTF-16) in SQL Server 7.0 using
the JDBC ODBC bridge the returned String (using getString(n)) is of type UTF-8,
resulting in every other character being an ASCII 0. This is not a problem
with "nvarchar" which returns correctly.

Entry into database: repository
Returned bytes (spaces are actually ASCII 0): r e p o s i t o r y
Returned String: 7200650070006F007300690074006F0072007900

When i call ResultSet.getObject() on a nvarchar column I get null.
If i use a varchar column then i get the right data.

It seems to be a bug in the JDBC/ODBC bridge.
