Re: ODBC Driver stability - Mailing list pgsql-odbc

The same application runs stable with oracle and mssql.
I used iis crash dumps to find out that it was the odbc driver causing the
problems and sent some of the odbc-logs to hiroshi (end of 2003).
Maybe i'm using different features of the driver that cause problems.
could you send me your odbc driver settings / connection string ?

I did not test or install the 8.x.x.x drivers.

bye,
Markus.
