To compile the PsqlODBC source, you need MS Visual C++ 4.0 or higher.
Step 1: Install original PsqlODBC driver to the Client PC. If you have
already installed it, then you may skip this step.
Step 2: Compile the patched source.
Step 3: Replace original PSQLODBC.DLL file with compiled new one. There is
in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM(Windows9x) or C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32(WindowsNT).
Step 4: Try to use any large objects with new ODBC driver.
There is no work on the server side.
