Re: How to create a *pass-through-query* in postgresql

No, you could not do that _easily_.

You'd have to write some sort of a Postgres (C) wrapper against
unix-to-odbc libraries, to be able to do something like that. Very
nontrivial task. Also you may consider trying to use plperl and perl's
DBD interface to a DBD-to-ODBC proxy running on windows. At either case,
with current state of plperl it'll be a challenging thing...
