Andrew, even moral support is welcome. I'm on WinXP Pro here, using ghc 6.8.3, and cabal install. Maybe I can help with the installation problem, what did you do so far? Günther Am 10.01.2009, 15:38 Uhr, schrieb Andrew Coppin :

Hi Bulat,

I do :), but I was amazed that there was no response to a post with, what I thought, would be a rather common problem for an application developer. That post was about writing to an MS-Access database via HDBC-ODBC, which fails. When I then asked the HDBC maintainer himself it turned out that he doesn't use Windows either and thus can't help.

Thus my cry for help explicitly to Haskellers on Windows.

If you managed to get HDBC-ODBC to compile on Windows in the first place, you got further than me...

It's a pitty that Windows receives so little support, but I guess if nobody has a Windows box to test with, there's not much you can do about it.

Can you describe exactly what the problem you're having is?
