I have the Intersolv 16-bit ODBC v2.12 from CA.  How do I configure this
driver to run in Async mode so that Windows isn't frozen while waiting for a
query?  We are using the ODBC in SPSS and Visual Basic 4.0 (16bit).  I have
talked to Ingres Tech support and they didn't know for sure but are looking
into it for me.  This problem occurs in both Windows 3.1 and Windows 95.

The problem you are having is probably caused by INGRES/NET and not by
ODBC. INGRES/NET uses a 'Blocking' Connection i.e. one that causes your
PC to become 'Frozen' whilst a query is being processed.

One solution you could try is using the 32bit INGRES/NET that should be
available by now (with Windows 95). I'm not sure if this fixes the
problem or how it works with the Intersolv 16/32bit NT drivers but it
is worth a try.

If you have a look at the Yield parameter in the ODBC Setup, you will see that
you cannot use asynchronous connections using Ingres/NET.  This is a limitation
of Ingres/NET and is subsequently passed onto the Intersolv driver since they
use the same NET API.
