Re: Problems with ODBC and ASP .NET 2.0

Not too sure I can help you.
After looking into what was available I decided to use the Npgsql
instead of ODBC. It is very much more ADO.NET centric.
I have a app running for a couple of months continuous with moderate
load with nary a glitch.

I trust pooling to work, so all my "connect - do something - drop
connection" are very short, and used a lot, natch.
