I just got back from a week long advanced VB topics class and a good ole db provider is something that windows apps is really going to need. The ODBC is not going to cut itfor us serious Windows developers. I'll offer any services I can, but I'm not a C programmer. I can do VB, but that may designate to no more than Testing... but I'll test the hell out of it.

I spent a few hours going over the OLEDB SDK, and it will not be a simple project. The shear number of interfaces I will have to implement is insane. Not to mention the way Microsoft seems to go around the world to get next door when they design something. (Have a look at Direct3D sometime *g*) I will keep the list informed of my progress, or lack thereof. I have transitioned my main workstation at home to Linux, but I will get my C++ compiler installed on my wife's machine and start coding as soon as I have some sort of gameplan. In the interim, I might build a simple COM wrapper to libpq.dll...I really haven't decided how I want to attack this yet.

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.
