You need to open up the Data Sources (ODBC) control panel applet to set this up under windows (I believe you need to open the 'Administrative Tools' first, to get there. I've never set up a DSN for UnixODBC, so I can't help you there, if that's what you need. > Also, since there's a MySQL library, couldn't there be one for PostgreSQL?
