Hi,

After upgrading GDAL to a version that supports MSSQL bulk inserts (v2.2.3) I 
have found an issue with data append operations using ogr2ogr between MSSQL 
spatial tables. If the destination table has a column of type varchar(max) then 
it is only populated with the first character from the source record. No such 
issue for nvarchar(max) types or varchar with a restricted length.
The GDAL command I am using is simply:
ogr2ogr -append -f MSSQLSpatial 
"MSSQL:server=SQLSERVER;database=DATABASE;trusted_connection=yes" 
"MSSQL:server=SQLSERVER;database=DATABASE;trusted_connection=yes;tables=SOURCETABLE"
 -nln DESTTABLE

The only work around for this is to disable bulk inserts first with:
SET MSSQLSPATIAL_USE_BCP=NO

We are using MSSQL Server 2014.  Has anyone else come across this?

Thanks
Jason
