Bug reference: 8496
Logged by: Mani
Email address: manindra(dot)sarkar(at)brightnorth(dot)co(dot)uk
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.0
Operating system: MacOS 10.8 ML
Description:

I have tried using the psqlODBC driver with Excel but it does not work as
expected.

In comparison the below driver from Openlink does a good job.

It would be great to have the same functionality in the native driver.

Excel does not seem to respond with any data - but does give an idea that it
has made some sort of a connection with the database. SQL commands fail from
being executed.
