<p class="MsoNormal">hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I'm a Racket hobbyist and have yet to use DB access in any form (under racket). I'd be very curious to try accessing MS SQL
<i>without using ODBC</i>. Searching for "native SQL driver" got me here:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"> <a href="http://docs.racket-lang.org/db/notes.html">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"> …<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:35.4pt"><b>6.9.3 SQL Server ODBC Driver<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:35.4pt">Basic SQL Server support has been verified on Windows, but the automated test suite has not yet been adapted and run.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:35.4pt">The “SQL Server” driver refuses to accept NUMERIC or DECIMAL parameters, producing the error “Invalid precision value (SQLSTATE: HY104).” If possible, use the “Native SQL Server” driver instead.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and I'd love to follow up on that suggestion but was hoping to find slightly more details. Is there a good source of wisdom I'm missing?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">cheers,<o:p></o:p></p>
