Hey Lads: I believe HBQL is a one-man volunteer effort. For the gentleman involved, my guess is that ODBC support sounds like a good-idea-nice-thing-to-have but perhaps a bit down on the priority list and a little awkward to develop if your desktop is not windows. Any chance of you fellas mucking in on the HBQL project to add the ODBC support yourselves? Or putting up resources to help get it developed?
