I'm looking for a library that allows node.js to connect to ODBC on windows. All the libraries I have found thus far seem to work with UnixODBC but not windows, can someone please suggest a library that will work with Windows?

Although the readme only mentions UnixODBC, this project: https://github.com/wankdanker/node-odbc will actually install and work on windows.

You can install it on windows with:

npm install odbc

but you will need the various requiements for building native modules on windows:
