title: Entity Framework and ODBC
body: <p>I have been working with Entity Framework with Microsoft SQL Server (via <code>SqlClient</code>) and recently required to connect to an external database via ODBC connection.</p>
  
  <p>Here are my questions:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Is EF on ODBC doable?</li>
  <li>IF yes, how? or If No, what other option if OBDC is a must.</li>
  <li>Any sample EF on OBDC project for reference?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
