Well, then... what about simply implementing it ? ;-)

A set of OBDC dlls for Windows 95 is included with MS Office Pro, look on the
CD,you'll need Windows Installer to run it.
run it by:
msiexec /i $setupfile
They don't seem to include however OBDC.dll itself.
OBDC.dll from memory first appeared in Internet Explorer 4 and was probly last
included in a IE installer in IE5.5

Well, if so many people depend on it, then why not fix this issue ? ;-)
Use exedump.exe or nedump.exe or something similar to dump the function
names of Windows's odbc.dll, create a file odbc.spec in dlls/odbc32/, check out
how other
directories in dlls/ are organized/implemented, search http://msdn.microsoft.com
on how to implement not yet existing 16bit ODBC functions or so, and that's it.
A matter of a couple hours, at most.
(for a basic working example, at least)

But should it be implemented similarly to odbc32.dll, i.e. as a proxy to a unix
ODBC library or should it try to function as it does on windows?

Sorry, could you explain this more ?
I really don't know what this means.
AFAICS of course it should interface to a unix ODBC library.

I've looked through and old set of Offical Platform SDK Headers (October 2000,
find it somewhere on planetmirror.com ) and ODBC has puzzled me a bit.
There is no Odbc.h, there are two files called OdbcInst.h and OdbcSS.h.
OdbcInst.h contains a kinda SQL Abstraction Layer and the other one some simular
methods. touch(ing) the file won't work. Office 2K needs a actual working example.
