[postgis-users] Postgis and arcgis with data interoperability extension

Ok thanks for the OLE DB info.
I am still new to working with databases so maybe I am wrong, but ESRI told
me that I can use ArcSDE only with the Server Version that I until now don t
have. But still it should be possible to connect through the Data
Interoperability Extension.
The strange thing is that it works with polygons but not with point geometry

Thanks for your ideas
