Hi,  
I want to try out the ODBC SQL driver with Excel. But after installation I got the exception below:

Thanks @suikast42 for the message.  
The issue had already been addressed ([PR161](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-sql-odbc/pull/161)) and the fix is going to be available in the next patch release (7.2.1). Only the 7.2.0 release is affected.  
Sorry for this inconvenience.
