Stupid newbie question

Hi All, Now 90 minutes into my PHP career and I'm stumbling over what should be a really simple issue. From what I've read in the documentation, odbc support functions are part of the core PHP distribution, so I should be able to call them without needing to load any extra modules, right? Well, I can get "Hello World" type scripts to run fine, but I've just started working on my first DB-enabled script and cannot get a clean compile on the line containing my odbc_connect line. The entire file consists of: <html> <body> <?php $connID = odbc_connect("foobar", "", ""); ?> </body> </html> And the error returned is: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: odbc_connect() in d:\InetPub\scripts\HelloWorld.php on line 4 Obviously this means it cannot locate the odbc_connect function, but I cannot see a spelling error and I didn't think I needed to add anything extra. I'm using PHP4.0 beta 2 running under Microsoft PWS using Communicator 4.6 as the client.
