Re: ODBC problem with Microsoft Word and Excel - Mailing list pgsql-odbc

Correct.

The part I don't understand is that I enabled logging and it appears to be
returning the table list!  Immediately after I attempt the connect from
either EXCEL or WORD I pulled the logfiles.

The ODBC logfile contains the following:

conn=02B03A90, PGAPI_DriverConnect( in)='DSN=PostgreSQL30W;',
fDriverCompletion=3
DSN info:

    [ fetched 14 rows ]

There are indeed 14 rows (tables), and the debug output says there were 14
rows fetched!

The query is also ok; I ran it by hand on the server, and got the list of
tables cleanly with no diagnostics.

What's going on?

Same error out of either Excel or Word (mailmerge setup)

The attached link refers to .udl(s).  UDL(s) only work with OLE-DB drivers
not ODBC drivers,
correct?  In this case the posters is trying to get the ODBC driver to work
correctly.
