  Thank you, Guido, but I should prefer answers from Microsoft
  ODBC experts on the official forum.  I don't think they are
  watching tek-tips.com .  I will, however, go to tek-tips if
  all else fails, but this is not really a solution.  There
  must a Microsoft forum where my question would not be off-
  topic.

  Your  original question aimed at the ODBC Standard, not a special Microsoft product.

  This MSDN Forum is a community forum. I don't know where you can find only Microsoft employees who are ODBC experts.

  You should ask Microsoft directly where you can find them: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/contactus/

  Regards, Guido

  The ODBC standard is a Microsoft product, is it not?

  There is a higher chance of receiving highly qualified help
  from Microsoft specialists in this forum than in any other.
  Thanks for the contact link, I will try it, but I fear MS do
  not provide free consultations...  In this topic I am asking
  about a suitable section in the MSDN forum.  I think I'll
  try "SQL Server Data Access" for lack of a better place.

  Thank you, Dave.  If the admins will be kind to me, they
  will move my question to whatever section they see fit
  instead of deleting it on sight.

  According to the documentation https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/odbc/microsoft-open-database-connectivity-odbc?view=sqlallproducts-allversions

  you should ask for support here: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?linkid=5521

  You're welcome. I'd just re-ask your question in the suggested forums.

  Guide, Microsoft Help and Support does even list ODBC
  among the products amenable for support.

  Dave, reask the question about where to ask about ODBC?
  I would rather get down to the matter at hand.

  There are no forums specific to ODBC. If you're asking about SQL Server then try the forums I linked.

  https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=databasedesign

  https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/sqlserver/en-us/home?forum=ssdt

  If it were msaccess then try asking here.

  https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_access

  https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-us/home?forum=accessdev

  or possibly;
