Brian, Being able to connet to a database and do queries is a milestone in itself. It wouldn't hurt to go ahead and check it into cvs. Besides, I feel safer anything I have worked on has been put into cvs because I know Ximian guys keep things backed up unlike my computer. :-)
I don't know what the namespace or assembly for the ODBC provider in .NET 1.1, but the MSDN download of the ODBC provider for .NET 1.0 uses Microsoft.Data.Odbc as the namespace and Microsoft.Data.Odbc.dll as the assembly name. We have SQL# which is a command-line SQL query tool written in C# that can connect to various databases using the various ADO.NET providers. It can be found at mcs/class/System.Data/Test/SqlSharpCli.cs However, don't be to disappointed in the tool, it was mainly meant for testing Mono's System.Data. What would be nice is to have a MS SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer, or TOAD like tool for Mono System.Data written in C# and using GTK#.

I don't want to send in anything that is too raw :) Has anyone looked at .NET 1.1 yet? I'm assuming they are moving the Odbc stuff under the System.Data namespace...so that is how my stuff is setup. (System.Data.Odbc) Have you guys talked about providing any basic db tools with the mono framework? Like a isql-style command line tool? This might be a good way for people to test their database connections, etc. Keep up the good work guys...the framework is looking good.
