Hello,

I'm struggling with the "Unable to obtain list of tables from the data source" error. This occurs in MS Word 2002 when performing mail merge and opening an ODBC datasource, configured with the Postgresql driver. I tried several version of the driver, 7.1., 7.2, 7.3 and 8.0.1 with no luck. There is no need to go in further detail as this was vastly discussed just a couple of month ago. (http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/2004-12/msg00056.php). I find that Word 2002 is more particular than older versions. Word 2000 plus the v7.3 driver (7.03.02.00) work fine. Now I wonder how newer MS Office versions behave. Did anybody ever try Word 2004 or 2005? (if these exist at all).

Happy with pg anyway, Edzard Pasma
