Maybe, if you get the connect string into there via some API call. No 
idea whether it is possible.

Or if it's referenced in a existing .odb..

Yes, maybe it's just an oversight when -nogui was introduced.

I would at least think that if scripting some mailmerge having the 
actual driver for the database (if it's postgres) might make sense...
