Our Windows-based db server has to integrate with users that work regularily with Access.When attempting to import user's data from Access MDB files to PostgreSQL, we try on eof two things: either import using EMS SQL Manager's Data Import from Access utility, or export from Access to Postgresql via an odbc-based connectionin both cases, the performance is just awful. Performance with Tcl's native postgres driver seems rather fine running from Windows a Windows client, BTW. ODBC is often blamed for this sort of thing - I have the 8.01.02 release dated 2006.01.31. Everything appears to be at its default setting. Is this the reason for the rather depressing performance fromt/to access and can anything be done about it? Carlo
