[Pharo-project] ODBC: table names and column names/types?

Well, no need to use a native driver for that. A simple "standard" SQL statement issued through an ODBC connection against the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES table would do the job.

You can use the native MySQL driver if you want to do what Benoit St-Jean said. SqueakDBX with MySQL doesn't work yet under Windows, but there is a lot of people asking about that, so I think we must get MySQL another round :(
Is somewhere a C (under Windows) guru here? Because the problem is: I can compile OpenDBX with the MySQL client library in Windows but in runtime, when I try to run the OpenDBX tests, I have a crash :( And In windows I cannot see even the stack...If there is someone capable to help me, please send me a private email. I will really appreciate the help.
Best,
Mariano

Which version of MySQL? Since version 4.1, there's all you need in the "INFORMATION_SCHEMA" database, in the "TABLES" table. But because of some bug in 4.1, query against that database sometimes caused the server to crash. I'd recommend that method only for 5.x and upwards.
