Hi Ray,

Thanks for the help. Since I am using classic ASP this is exactly what I am 
looking for. But there is a problem here. When I go the "Create New Data 
Source" window as mentioned in step ii, Ifind only sql server and Oracle 
drivers. I do not see PostgreSQL ODBC driver. But I am sure PsqlODBC is 
installed as it appears in the installed program list. Is there anything else I 
am missing, because of which the driver does not appear in the source?? Please 
let me know.

Thanks,
Mamatha

I moved away from ASP a long time ago, so memory is rusty, but here goes:

(i) Go to the ODBC data sources manager (under Administrative tools on my 
Windows 7 laptop)

(ii) Create a new data source, using the PostgreSQL ODBC driver.

(iii) In your ASP page, do something like:

   dim conn
   set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
   conn.Open "DSN=your_data_source_name"

This is using classic ASP, mind you, not ASP.NET - the latter may be different.

Ray.
