Welcome, Raul,

Currently, the only way to access 4D via ODBC is from Windows.
See http://www.4d.com/products/odbcdriver.html for more info. 4D, Inc 
sells an ODBC driver which translates ODBC calls on the client machine 
into 4D Open connections to the Server machine. This driver is Windows-only.

One of the projects I've been working on in the background is an XS to 
provide a MacPerl interface to the 4D Open libraries. So far, the 
going is slow, even considering the number of hurdles I've managed to get 
past so far.
