Hi Tom,

Due to the responses I received, I am now thoroughly convinced of the need to upgrade & have passed this information on. We are running RHEL 4.1 which is why the newer version did not install with RHEL. I initially was using an older version of psqlodbc, but decided to upgrade to the latest on my test machine hoping it would help. The users have the older psqlodbc. I will ask the pgsql-odbc group next. Thank you for your suggestions!

Best regards,
Karen

I have a problem that has me stumped.  We have a table that is the main

complaining that sometimes they enter data in the form, move off of the

existed in the field prior to the entry.
FWIW, that sounds like it's entirely a client-side issue.  So you might
have better luck asking about it in pgsql-odbc.

We are using PostgreSQL 8.1.4 on Red Hat, Microsoft Access 2002&
psqlodbc_09_00_0200.
As noted elsewhere, 8.1.4 is really old (more than 4 years old in fact).
It's likely not helping any that you're using a fresh-off-the-boat
psqlodbc version with it --- I don't know that anyone would have done
any significant testing of 09_00_0200 against an 8.1.x server.

Red Hat is currently shipping Postgres 8.4.x for RHEL-5 (see the
"postgresql84" package set).  It'd be a good thing to consider updating
to 8.4.x sometime soon.  I doubt it'll fix this immediate problem, but
it will likely save your data from getting eaten sometime in the future.

                        regards, tom lane
