Yes, few years ago, the ODBC driver was the first DB driver really working in GRASS (there were also Informix and Sybase(?) in the source, but never really used). The ODBC driver was written on Linux, based on http://www.unixodbc.org/. It was written before GRASS was ported to Windows. The API is standard so that it should work on Windows, maybe some minor modifications are necessary. Most probably some debugging and bugfixing has to be done on Windows. 2. ) Has anybody succeded to use the ODBC driver in a WinGRASS distribution (like the GRASS version installed with QGIS for Windows) ? It's possible to open ODBC data bases in QGIS, I know. Would like to do the same in GRASS. But I get only error messages and the ODBC driver crashes. What error message?
