First, DB related posts should go to R-SIG-DB:

 https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-db

Please use that in the future, not R-Help.

Second, why are you trying to install the *source* version of RODBC when there are pre-compiled binary versions of the package available for Windows? 

Just use:

  install.packages("RODBC")

within an R session.

Finally, R version 2.12.0 is now over two years old. 2.15.2 is the current version, so you should also be updating your R installation.
