Hi,


We have a huge Btrieve database we need to access through ODBC to write 
some reports. This database is on a server and subdivided in three drives.

Questions:

1.	We were told that ODBC can only access one drive/directory
	at a time. 
	Is that true ? Any solution to go around this ?

2.	We have the ODBC SDK and all that stuff. Create a new Btrieve 
	driver with this multi drives/directories feature must be 
	possible, but it is probably not a piece of cake.
	Has anybody already done it ? (I don't want to reinvent the wheel).
	Any advice to do it ? (My experience in this area is poor!).


Thankx for any help!

Pierre
