There is an Xcode example project that links to the Apple-supplied
iODBC libraries at:

http://www.actualtechnologies.com/example.php

The project uses Carbon, but since ODBC is a C API, using it with Cocoa
would be similar.  I'm not aware of any publicly available abstraction
layers for ODBC and Cocoa, but we are working on publishing one we use
internally.  I'll post it when it's available.
