wine users - Nov 2001 - ODBC

I've not been able to find anything about this so far, but I need to run a
program
that connects to a MS SQL DB. The interface runs under Wine, but I cannot get 
it to see the DB. Do I need any kind of additional software layer to get Windows
ODBC working.

Thanks...

Tom

AFAIK Windows ODBC does not work under Wine.
Odbc support under Wine is of a different sort : Win32
applications can connect to datasources if these data
sources are defined and accessibles to the Unix part
of the computer. AFAIK there is no support to make
Win32 Odbc drivers run under Wine. And I don't 
think there is a Linux driver for MsSqlDb....
