Further to my earlier post I have done some investigating. It turns out
the problems is with all strings greater than 255 characters which are
automatically converted to LO.
The statement of the form
cursor.execute("SELECT value FROM table WHERE x = ?", (a_value, ))
where a_value is a string longer than 255 characters always generates an
error of the form
ProgrammingError: ('HY000', 7, 'ERROR: type "lo" does not exist', 5898)
The ODBC.log

It seems that the ODBC driver is not returning enough information about
the datatype text and that the Python ODBC driver is automatically
converting to a large object for strings more than 255 characters in
length.
What possible solutions are there to this problem? defining the lo type?
or improving the information provided by the ODBC driver?
Thanks for any pointers
