Thanks sde and idx. I'll look into all the suggestions. Unfortunately, this particular client will not be hosting on my server (if they were, I'd insist that they use MySQL). They have one of those lame, $20/month virtual hosting accounts, on a Windows server no less, so I will have no control over php.ini.

I think I'll contact the host and ask if they have the ODBC dll installed, or if they'd be willing to install it. If not, I'll try to convince the client to move their hosting over to my server. And if they don't want to do that, I'll just turn the job down. It's too much of a pain in the ass, and I have plenty of other work to keep me busy.

Thanks for the tips, though. I learned something.
