-report the bugs/problems you have encountered in the latter case.
+As of v2.6 of wxWidgets, the wxODBC classes now fully support the compilation

+and OS on which the program will be compiled/run is Unicode capable.
+
+The one major difference in writing code that can be compiled in either 
+unicode or non-unicode builds that is specific to the wxODBC classes is to 
+use the SQL\_C\_WXCHAR datatype for string columns rather than SQL\_C\_CHAR or 
+SQL\_C\_WCHAR.
