ODBC Driver Version 7.02.00.01

I think the server engine is Postgres95.

The error message I get is when trying to open the database
in Microsoft Query:

"WARN:=for int4 and oid using DEFINE OPERATOR"

and then

"Couldn't read this file".

My apologies, I wasn't sure which log file to include.

My guess is that it is due to a version mismatch with
the driver and the older version of the DB.  Do you
know where I can get an older driver (for Windows) that
would allow me to migrate this data to another system
(i.e. newer version of PostgreSQL)?

The current odbc driver doesn't support Postgres95.
Unfortunately I don't know if there was such a driver
and don't know Postgres95 itself.

I'm amazed there are still any running copies of Postgres95.  Are you
holding it till the Smithsonian comes for it?  :-)

Anyway, you should certainly not think in terms of using ODBC for an
upgrade.  pg_dump, install new version, run pg_dump script is the thing
to do.  Be advised that Postgres95 -> current is a large jump.  There is
probably no hope that your dump script will load without manual editing.
(If the PG95 pg_dump supports dumping schema and data separately, I'd
advise doing it that way, since your editing will probably all be of
the schema declarations.)
