In Windows, what would you say is the easiest language to use which can talk to Postgresql? Just curious....��� e.g. I have Liberty Basic which is very easy, but does not easily support ODBC...

My take is that the professional version is well worth the extra $300 if you are really serious about doing database development. It has support for PostgreSQL and a lot of other databases already included. If I was developing an application for some one else to use, ODBC would be my last choice because of the configuration and setup hassles.
