Call to undefined function odbc_connect()

Hi,
I installed PHP 5.0 on my linux box.
In php.ini, i added this: extension=odbc.so
But i still get the error:"Call to undefined function odbc_connect()" when
trying to run this command:
$connect = odbc_connect ('DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver
(*.mdb)};DBQ=/mnt/pen1800d/access\newres.mdb', '', '');

In windows, no error.
I thought odbc was integrated in php.
What do i have to install then and what about php.ini?

Thanks

The PHP has been compiled without the odbc support or the odbc part has been
split into another package which you need to install.

Thanks for replying.
I downloaded the file PHP-5.1.2 (tar.gz).
How can i know whether odbc module is included?
Can you tell me the option in order to compile php with odbc? (something
like --odbc ?)?
Thanks

root@mich work/php-5.1.2# ./configure --help |g odbc
--with-custom-odbc[=DIR]
have some odbc.h in your include dirs.
CUSTOM_ODBC_LIBS="-ldblib -lodbc"
--with-iodbc[=DIR] Include iODBC support. DIR is the iODBC base
--with-pdo-odbc=flavour,dir
--with-pdo-odbc=unixODBC

--with-pdo-odbc=generic,dir,libname,ldflags,cflags
named pdo_odbc.so
