what postgresql version do you have?  i'm having problems with 7.1.3, the
required ODBC files sql.h sqlvar.h (and another one), seem to be called
isql.h and isqlvar.h in postgresql, so i thought this might be a problem.
could you give me some hints on the installation?

i'd really prefer using srpersist and schemeQL than spgsql..

thanks,
