Yeah, I figured it would not be easy since so much of the schema and
everything gets dropped into it. But man, when you have a specific provider
for the database... it is VERY nice what can be done with it. I was playing
with the MS SQL Server provider and it is nice having it.... and as you
said, it would lay to rest much of the ODBC development.
