Hi,

Thanks for the pointers.

Levente, could you point me to this driver for mac?

Cheers,
Doru

Hi Tudor:

Is as Levente says, you must define an ODBC source on a Windows PC
(Alternatively on Unix you can use ODBC also).

I don't know any free ODBC drivers for Access on un*x. I only know a driver which costs 4-5 times more than the windows OS itself :). But
there's a driver for mac which costs only 30 usd if you're interested.

Some examples on: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2480

Cheers.
Germán.

Thanks Mariano!

Indeed, if I load ConfigurationOfFFI first, everything loads well.

I am a complete newbie in this area. Can anyone tell me what I should do
next?

I imagine that I should connect to an Access server. If yes, how would I
do that?

Also, do I need anything else, like a C plugin/library to get the C calls
from ODBCLibrary going?

First you'll need a pc running windows. Then you have to create an ODBC Data Source for your Access file. Then you'll be able to create a connection to
that datasource from your image.

Hi,

I tried loading it, but I get :
"This package depends on the following classes:
ExternalLibrary
ExternalStructure"

Can anyone tell me where to find these from?

This means that you need Metacello ;)

Those classes are from FFI, a pre-requisite for ODBC to work.
Maybe there is a ConfigurationOfODBC somewhere...

For the moment, I recommend you to install FFI using the
ConfigurationOfFFI.

Cheers

Also, are there eternal prerequisites to work with ODBC?

Cheers,
Doru

Hi,

Is there a way to connect to a Microsoft Access database from Pharo?

Yes, with ODBC.

I have an mdb file of 300 Mb that I would need to analyze.

Cheers,
