Support for MSSQL databases

Jan,

Have you actually used the ODBC driver with the Query Builder?  Since my bug
#511 doesn't seem to be getting any attention, I was wondering if ANYONE
ELSE has this same problem, or if anyone has ever even attempted it.  I
would at least like confirmation that it is a real bug or not!

Jay

Hi Roger,

You can connect to MS SQLServer through ODBC just fine
(in fact, using a DSN can make things easier if any of
the connection parameters change)
Perhaps you can file this as an enhancement request
and encourage people to vote for it, so that it gets
higher priority -- or if there's enough interest, a
third-party steps up and writes a revdb-driver.
