Schemas shown in ODBC
Hi everyone,
I've just upgraded from Postgres 8.0.1 to 8.1. For testing purposes I'm
using a MS Access Frontend connected by ODBC. This worked fine until I
switched to the new ODBC-Driver (the Unicode-version). When I try to
connect to some new tables, the ODBC-Driver shows tables from the
information_schema only. Adding a SET SEARCH_PATH specifing the
public-schema explicitly doesn't help. The ANSI-driver won't do either.
What's to be done, do have the choice what schema to connect with?
Kind regards,
Claus.

Acc2K on Win2K
Someone on the ODBC-list said Acc2K is not affected on WinXP.
StarOffice8 on Win2K doesn't show this issue either.
You could easily link your tables by a little VBA script within Acc2K
even though linking by dialog won't be possible.
