One remaining point: Is there a possibility to close a ODBC
connection without closing gretl or executing the "clear" command?
The reason is that institutions/ companies may only support a
limit number of open DB-connections, and thus it's good habit to
close the DB-connection once it is not needed any more.
Never fear, gretl does not keep an ODBC connection open after a call
to the "data" command. We store the DSN information so we can
re-establish the connection on demand, but we call SQLDisconnect()
after each "data" invocation.
