>For ODBC access to flat files a 3rd party driver will be needed.

Not sure about that. I am not an ODBC expert, but it seems that there
are options to access text files with ODBC (*.txt or *.csv) -- While
I have not tried it myself, it might work to place the flat file (in
bytestream format) on a Samba/iX share and then access that via the
Microsoft Text Driver from the ODBC 32 control panel.

Any takers to try this and report back if it works or not?

Lars.
