Thread: ODBC with VISUAL BASIC applications to access POSTGRESQL db on LINUX??
ODBC with VISUAL BASIC applications to access POSTGRESQL db on LINUX??
From

Ok, I'm confused... I've read most of the messages in my archives that deal
with PGSQL, ODBC... I would like to develop some applications using VB6 to
access PGSQL databases on Linux remotely over the Internet. Can someone
point me to an ODBC driver that would enable this? Should I use P. Harvey's
driver, or something else... what is postODBC? iODBC? I don't find any
references on the PGSQL web site and can't find other web sites that would
have these. Suggestions welcome!

Read the faq: http://postgresql.readysetnet.com/docs/faq-english.html Just a development note though, it is normally a bad idea to have your database connected to the Internet and having your program access it directly.
