ODBC Question for 7.0

I had the ODBC stuff set up for PostgreSQL 6.* and running it from
within StarOffice5.1 last week. This morning I successfully upgraded to
PostgreSQL 7.0 (goodie for me). Unfortunately I don't know how to
upgrade the ODBC drivers. I have them, I'm just not sure what to do
with them.

To get PostgreSQL 6.0 ODBC up and running I used unixODBC. Although it
sort of works with 7.0 I'm getting errors. Can someone please tell me
what I need to do to install the new 7.0 ODBC Drivers?

I think there is some sort of setup file that unixODBC needs to interact
with the 7.0 drivers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sam

Re: ODBC Question for 7.0

Replying to myself in the event that anyone was curious. Ended up
closing down StarOffice and starting it back up. Everything works fine
now. Go figure.

Can't really do/see relationships in Star Office, although that may be
more a StarOffice thing than ODBC driver.

Hmm, looks like StarOffice has better Microsoft compatibility than I
thought ;).
