I’ve loaded the most recent ODBC driver off the Postgresql FTP site.

 

The DBMS is functioning, has other applications (libpq, etc) operating perfectly, and the “Test” functionality from the “Data Sources” setup shows that I can connect to the database desired when I declare the connection.

 

However, when I attempt to go into either WORD (to use it as a mail merge source) or EXCEL (just for grins to pull data from there) I connect to “ODBC DSN”, click “PostgreSQL30W” (the driver that was set up in the Data Sources panel), I immediately get “Unable to get list of tables from the data source”.

 

What’s going on?!
