Thanks for the clarified language.  Yes, that is indeed the case.  I
have a database vendor that is stating that the datadirect driver
manager is more stable than unixODBC and iODBC, so I am looking for how
to tell RODBC to use the datadirect driver manager.  Is this something
that even makes sense to ask?
