To check Jacob's suggestion about versions mismatch I completely removed 
the DataFrames and ODBC packages using Pkg.rm and physically deleted the 
directories from disk. I then added them via Pkg.add and Pkg,update.  

I am running the julia nightlies build.
julia> versioninfo()

 - ODBC                          0.3.5

I did some digging. It looks like there is a mismatch in that countna 
expects DataFrame columns to be DataArrays. However the ODBC package 
returns DataFrames that have array columns (using the first constructor in 
dataframe.jl). You guys would know better as to whether a change is needed 
in the constructor or if countna should also accept Array columns.


I made some local changes to work around the issue. 

show.jl:
line 42:  if isna(col, i)     changed to  if isna(col[i])
line 322:  missing[j] = countna(adf[j])     changed to    missing[j] = 
countna(isa(adf[j], DataArray) ? adf[j] : DataArray(adf[j]))

These work great for me.
