RE: [PHP] Fatal error: Call to undefined function: odbc_connect()

Keith, I suggest recompiling --with-iodbc, as per the HOWTOs at www.iodbc.org. Then you can use whichever ODBC driver you like. Once you have ODBC support compiled in, you can verify it by looking at the output of a phpinfo(); command. Please let me know if you require additional information.
