Hi Eric

Sorry for the delay in replying.

Many thanks for your very useful contribution.
The revised entry is here:

  http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/GLPK/ODBC#GLPK_Windows_7_executable

I did take the liberty of subbing it quite
heavily, so I hope it is still okay.  Perhaps you
and Xypron could check the content.

If you can send me your database write code
sometime, then I will add that too.

Your input is much appreciated, always good to
share these small bits of knowledge, Robbie
