It is, indeed. I have used it with great success with both PostgreSQL and DB2. It takes a little bit of work to configure it, and you need to know the ODBC API (the Microsoft documentation is the best available; they did invent it, after all). In addition, the Qt database API seems to be pretty popular. It looks like you're planning on a GNOME app, but you might try KDE instead. } HTH } Cheers } f. --Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
