Re: [MASSMAIL]Re: use psqlodbc on Windows without Windows driver manager?

Hello Takayuki and Malte,

there is another way:
you can create an import library of the ODBC driver (using MS tools
DUMPBIN and LIB), and link your application with the resulting .LIB-file
instead of Microsoft's odbc32.lib.

Kind regards,
Dieter Mueller
