I just checked the FAQs and found this, which confirms my earlier memories: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Running_%26_Installing_PostgreSQL_On_Native_Windows#What_versions_of_Windows_does_PostgreSQL_run_on.3F However, as Craig pointed out, you REALLY don't want to trust your data to a Windows98 machine. An ODBC connection to another box is by far the safer solution, or else get your clients to upgrade. :-) Ray. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Raymond O'Donnell, Director of Music, Galway Cathedral, Ireland rod@xxxxxx Galway Cathedral Recitals: http://www.galwaycathedral.org/recitals ------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
