Is there a way to determine where my database is located?
Eeek! you NEVER directly access the postgres data files. rather, you
connect to postgres via a socket, and ask it to fetch the data for you,
thats just how it works.
your database and all the databases on that system are in
/usr/local/pgsql/data ... they involve multiple of those subdirectories,
you can't seperate the pieces from the whole without breaking it completely.
to use ODBC, you'd need to give it the DSN information, I don't know the
exact format, but in general, its something like
[PostgreSQL]
Description = Postgres Database FRED
Driver = PostgreSQL
Trace = Yes
TraceFile = sql.log
Database = FRED
Servername = localhost
UserName = fred
Password =
Port = 5432
