There is not presently an ODBC driver that is part of the main
distribution of USQL.  There is a branch, or subset of USQL that
provides ODBC support, but there was a considerable amount of work
needed to integrate it with the rest of USQL and insufficient labor at
the time to pull that off.  At least that is my recollection of the
situation.

As such, it would appear that you would need to complete this
integration, or you could use the existing PostgreSQL and MySQL
drivers on windows.
