I'm quite certain that this is completely impossible as long as you
really use DJGPP.  As opposed to, say, RSXNTDJ, which would let you
access Windows API functions (including ODBC) since it build Windows
applications.  

DJGPP makes DOS programs which just do not have any access whatsoever
to Windows stuff like ODBC.
