Hi 

I'm in a team which is supposed to develop a www selling system (it is a 
school project but we are doing it for a company). We'd like to use Linux 
+ perl5 + postgres95. The www part is no problem but we think that we 
should make some kind of tool to access the postgress database from the 
MS world (most buisness men use MS products). It would be a tool for 
updating prizes, products and so on. Is there:

	- ODBC for postgres
	- some windows 3.* dll that may communicate with postgress 
	- Any other way to access a postgres database from a windows 
	  program ?

Thank You for Your answers

Johan

Why not do everything in WWW?  Write a few forms, that allow your
company to enter products, update prices, etc.  Then add an IP-based
(or similiar) access control mechanism, so that customers will only
get the "order" pages, and company employees get the "setup product
info" pages as well.

Excerpts from internet.postgres: 16-Oct-95 Connections from MS world by
Johan R Sundstr|m@snakem 
>         - ODBC for postgres

I too would be very interested in doing something like this, though my
Windows programming is very limited. I spend alot of time developing
stuff with Access, but I'd rather the database was on a database server
- like Postgres. Anyone else interested in this type of product? I won't
be able to put in any work on this until next semester (January) but I'd
love to see it get started...
I could even run a mailing list specifically for the development of such
a beast....

I'm also watching out for ODBC connectivity. In this context
I saved a posting from a mailing list recently. Maybe this is
of interest, though it may not exactly be what you are 
looking for.

|Title:          iODBC Driver Manager
|
|Version:        2.00.beta
|
|Description:    iODBC (intrinsic Open Database Connectivity) driver manager
|                is compatible with ODBC 2.0 specification and performs exactly
|                same jobs of ODBC 2.0 driver manager(i.e driver loading, 
|                parameters and function sequence checking, driver's function 
|                invoking, etc.). Any ODBC driver works with ODBC 2.0 driver 
|                manager will also work with iODBC driver manager and vice versa.
| 
|                Applications(which using ODBC function calls) linked with 
|                iODBC driver manager will be able to concurrently access 
|                different data sources through suitable ODBC drivers. See
|                README file for detail.
