I should have mentioned that I turned off connection pooling for the
PostgreSQL ODBC driver to see would it make a difference, but the
backends hung around anyway. On the production system I will use
pooling - if the backends are there, hopefully they'll be re-used
rather than having new ones opened. I still have to try this out.

The same thing happens consistently.

Does you mean that ADO keeps the connection open regardless of
whether or not connection pooling is turned on? Is there any way to
control this behaviour? I don't see anything in the properties of the
ADO connection object to affect this, but maybe I just missed it at
2.00 am..... :)

Many thanks for your replies!
