I just upgraded to 6.5.0 (was on 6.4), with PG 7.0.2, and still don't get
the error. I did not let it install the ODBC manager, if that is relevant.
It *seems* fine.

Without a lot more information, it would be impossible to track down (eg.
when does the error appear, can you get to the data using a different
product (eg. Excel/MSQuery), how have you set up the DSN, did you reboot 17
times after the install).

You might also be want to post a message in a VB/ODBC newsgroup, since the
message is almost certainly from VB or ODBC (or a layer above ODBC).
