I'm using the PostgreSQL Unicode ODBC driver with Python (pyodbc) and VBA
(ADO). I get the same 18 second timeout with both, regardless of what I
provide in the connection string. In VBA, there is a ConnectionTimeout
property, but it does not seem to have any influence, e.g.:

' With added reference Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.x Library
Sub test()
Dim Conn As New ADODB.Connection
Dim ConnStr as String
ConnStr = "Driver={PostgreSQL
Unicode};Server=123.4.5.6;Port=5432;Database=mydb;Uid=myid;Pwd=mypw;Timeout=5"
Conn.CommandTimeout = 5
Conn.ConnectionString = ConnStr
Conn.Open
Debug.Print "connected"
Conn.Close
Set Conn = Nothing
End Sub

It takes 15 seconds to throw an error at "Conn.Open, since the host is
invalid.

pyodbc has a Connection.timeout property, but it is for query timeout.
