Hi All,

I am using a postgres database on a network machine.  I want to write a
front end for it using BCB 5.  I think I have it down to using ADO
components, from what I can tell they seem to be the best.  I want to pop up
a login dlg (my own, not the ADOConnection's).  Once I have that info is
there a way to setup a ADOConnection using that info.  The info I would be
getting would be user name, password and  db server.  Does there need to be
an ODBC DSN setup for the server or can I just go there?

    Thanks

            Glenn
