Thread: Show Databases via ODBC
Is it possible through ODBC to connect to a PostgreSql server and query for the available databases? When our application upgrades, we typically create a new database. I want to design a form which allows the user to select the old database, which then migrates data to the new (currently connected) database. Regards

Hi,
I think this query would be helpful:
select datname from pg_database;

Works perfect. I'll trap and show only our databases to the user. all thanks On Wed, 2012-03-07 at 21:00 +0100, Szymon Guz wrote: > On 7 March 2012 20:36, Bret Stern <bret_stern@machinemanagement.com> > wrote: > Is it possible through ODBC to connect to a PostgreSql > server and query for the available databases? > > When our application upgrades, we typically create a > new database.
