Hi Dave,
First of all, thanks for the reply.
Second, I'm quite sure I am accessing the same database. Infact, from psql I
can list the table, just cannot access it.
---------------------------------------------
contacts=> \dt
Database = contacts
+------------------+----------------------------------+----------+
| Owner | Relation | Type |
+------------------+----------------------------------+----------+
| postgres | Addresses | table |
| postgres | msysconf | table |
| postgres | pga_forms | table |
| postgres | pga_queries | table |
| postgres | pga_reports | table |
| postgres | pga_scripts | table |
+------------------+----------------------------------+----------+
contacts=> select * from addresses;
ERROR: addresses: Table does not exist.
contacts=>
------------------------------------------------------------
Furthermore, I can access the table from within pgadmin using the data
button. I cannot access the table from any other ODBC application
though(even though I am using the same odbc system dsn).
Attached is the database migration events.

Hi Glenn,
I must say I a bit stumped by this so I've CC'd it to the PostgreSQL
Interfaces mailing list in the hopes that someone there may have an idea
whats happening.
The obvious (and perhaps condescending!) question has to be: are you sure
you are trying to access the same database you migrated to?
I'm assuming that is the case, so could you re-run the migration with the
ODBC drivers commlog option switched on and send me the logfile created so I
can see if there is anything odd happening.
Regards,
Dave.

Beer can be a permanent solution - but only if you have enough of it!
