Hi Steve, first of all: which ODBC driver do you use? and which PostgreSQL Version? I've been using Postgers 7.0 and 7.0.2 with postdrv.exe (SFX) for Driver Version 6.5 >2) I notice in /usr/local/pgsql there is a file called "odbcinst.ini". Am >I supposed to alter this file? Normally you don't even need that file. You should watch out for the SFX-Archive postdrv.exe and install it. Make sure, all settings are correct for the driver itself: You say, inserting fails. That's because normally the driver is readonly (this is just a checkbox to unclick). Are you using a SystemDSN for accessing your PostgreSQL DB? Make sure you are allowed to access the database from your Windowscomputer. Stefan
