Yes there are ODBC drivers for Image/SQL databases, you can get them by ftp at
 
FTP.3K.COM /ODBC
 
The files are hpodbf19.exe or hp0dbg07.exe depending on which version of
Image/Sql you are
using.
 
We are doing the exact thing you are, interfacing PowerBuilder to our Image
databases along with
SQL Server databases and have decent success but are still working out the
bugs. We have used
the ODBC drivers and the HP Allbase API for our connectivity, haven't decided
on which one to use
yet.
 
Keep in you need to be running Image/SQL (just a shell running on top of Image)
and not just plain
image to be able to attach.
 
Let me know if I can be of any more help.
