Also, remember, those guys in SAG, X/Open, ANSI CLI : group and Microsoft ODBC group are not stupid at all. They know what : they are doing and what's the impact. Don't jump to a conclusion : that ODBC is wrong(deliberate or not) or stupid or unacceptable : at here or there before fully understand it. I still doubt that these people fully understand the impact of ODBC and the problems it creates for us and so many others. I would however appreciate *very* much if you could post some explanation of what you think we can do about our problems.
