Re: PostgreSQL 7.0

I've discovered that if there is any change to the ODBC driver or such,
Access needs to relink tables to take effect. Not sure if it is the case
here, but wouldn't hurt to try... Was the ODBC driver updated or reinstalled
with the upgrade? Check to make sure the Read Only boxes were unchecked?
