Hi,  
If I want to run a query from ODBC connected to PostgreSQL, but don’t want to receive a DataFrame, how do I go about doing this?

using ODBC.query(dsn\_connection, “my query string…”, sink =??)

I have tried sink = ODBC.Sink, and get Cannot `convert` an object of type DataStreams.Data.Schema{true} to an object of  
type ODBC.DSN

Are there other ways of doing this?

Thank you
