What you mean "modify DB Structure"?
For newer version of your app?

Is DB created for FIRST version of your app ?

Or this problem happen for FRESH db created by your App 2.0 ?
Then you should be able reproduce it for me.

I think you have made some mistake.
You use RB?

IT looks you describe 2 problems.

1) BaseObject method with chars > 127 is not portable?
    why this characters here?

2) -39 error.
