Huh? I am very weak on database stuff, but I was of the impression that
ODBC *wasn't* an on-the-wire protocol, but rather a calling convention for
database libraries so that arbitrary drivers could interoperate with
arbitrary database-enabled programs.

If ODBC IS an on-the-wire protocol, can someone point me to where it's
defined?
