Many thanks.

As it happens, I decided that ODBC connectivity might be a nice thing to 
have. HToolkit seemed the one to go for, so I downloaded it for a quick 
spin. After an initial minor bit of configuration hoopla (don't get me 
started with the Lisp equivalent; plain-odbc needs defsystem, which runs 
insides CLOCC, plus uffi, plus other stuff that I've lost track of; it's 
like peeling back the layers of an onion, only to find more layers. 
Also, like onions, they are capable of making a grown man cry). I 
created an MS Access database, a DSN, and fired up one of the examples. 
And it worked!

Haskell's stock is definitely going up, as far as I'm concerned.
