psqlodbc bug or something else? - Mailing list pgsql-interfaces

I've was having problems creating a remote view in Foxpro 3.0.

When I attempted to create a new remote view I entered the information
needed to make the connection such as database, server, port, user name and
password.  The view designer then opens and I'm presented with an open
dialogue displaying the sole table in the database I indicated.
Everything's fine up to this point.  When I selected the table I get the
message:

Connectivity error: Error while executing the query. ERROR: parser: parse
error at or near "."

And then I'm returned to an empty view designer.

After a little more playing around I discovered that selecting the Include
System Tables check box in the open dialogue allows the selection of the
desired table without the error and I'm able to complete the creation of the
remote view.


Reviewing the odbc driver CommLog created during the error condition
indicates that the offending query is:

conn=95289464, query='declare SQL_CUR95303956 cursor for SELECT * FROM
mds.medical_bills WHERE 1=0'
ERROR from backend during send_query: 'ERROR:  parser: parse error at or
near "."'

mds is the username for the connection and medical_bills is the selected
table.  The SELECT statement also produces the error in psql.

The question is where and why is the user name "mds" being added as a prefix
to the table name "medical_bills" -- is this something related to the odbc
driver or do I need to look elsewhere?

Thanks in advance!
