Dear list,

Due to a problem related to updates of views through rules, I bit the 
bullet and installed Pg 7.3.1. I use Debian (mostly Woody, a. k. a. stable) 
; after some attempts to install the Woody version, I installed the sid 
versions.

 From Windows (I'm using OpenOffice to access a Linux PostgreSQL database 
through the experimental ODBC3 drive, Dec 17 2002 version), nothing has 
changed : I still can't update a view (I thought the problem I had might be 
related to 7.2 not returning the number of rows updated). More on this 
later, after I have time to create a log ...

 From Linux (Same setup, using the official ODBC driver as packaged by 
Oliver Elphick for Debian Sid, a. k. a. unstable along with unixodbc), I 
can access tables, but no views. When I try to use a view, OpenAccess 
returns me an error message box asserting that "Can't update data contents. 
[unixODBC] Error: Attribute "ctid" not found". I don't even get a read-only 
  access to data.

I am suspecting a serious ODBC problem. Do you have any hints ?

Sincerely,

					Emmanuel Charpentier

PS : Please Cc: me your answers : I do not follow the list on a regular 
basis, and read it through the nntp interface. E. C.

Try to turn off the *Updatable cursors* DSN option or
create view the_table as ctid, oid, .......
