[mapguide-users] Oracle XE with ODBC?

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

The ODBC provider does not support spatial objects, just plain attributes.
You can map an x/y column pair to a point, but you won't get access to 
the SDO's.

There exists an specific Oracle provider, called King.Oracle, that 
supports the SDO's.
