Title: Can a PostgreSQL file be opened directly in PxPlus?
Post by: bmohrhardt on February 13, 2020, 02:04:27 PM

Hello Forum :

        If a PostgreSQL file cannot be OPENed directly, are there any plans to add the possibility?

        Thanks,
        Bill.

You should be able to access the PostgreSQL file using ODBC on either Windows or Linux.

Thanks Mike. Do I have to install the ODBC driver on the Linux server-side? Or is that only required on the Client?

You would need a unixOdbc driver for PostgreSQL and need to know how to configure it (something I don't know I'm afraid)
