Unable to obtain list of tables from the data source



<html><body><P><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2>Hello,</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=2>I'm struggling with&nbsp;the "Unable to obtain list of tables from the data source" error.&nbsp;This occurs in MS Word 2002 when performing mail merge and opening an ODBC datasource, configured with the Postgresql driver. I tried several version of the driver, 7.1., 7.2, 7.3 and 8.0.1 with no luck. There is no need to go in further detail as this was vastly discussed just a couple of month ago. (<A href="http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/2004-12/msg00056.php"; target=_blank><FONT color=#000000>http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/2004-12/msg00056.php</FONT></A>). I find that Word 2002 is more particular than older versions. Word 2000 plus the v7.3&nbsp;driver (7.03.02.00)&nbsp;work fine. Now I wonder how newer MS Office versions behave. Did anybody ever&nbsp;try Word 2004 or 2005? (if these exist at all). </FONT></P>
