Re: Connecting to SQL Server from Windows using FDW

Hi John,

Thanks, but I already saw that link. The problem is to installing the
tds_fwd extension on postgres. And I don't know how to (never tried)
compile it...

What comes with postgres by default is the postgres fdw
<http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/postgres-fdw.html>, that
allow to link 2 different postgres servers, but in this case that doesn't
help me.
