|
|
Has anyone successfully connect to a MS SQL Server with the vdsdb.dll?
Or more specifically, create a DSN to a MS SQL Server using vdsdb.dll's DB SETUP command.
If so, please show me a sample use of this command to create a SQL DSN.
Thanks in advance,
Aslan |

I will try to find some code for you, but I kept getting ODBC errors using VDSDB...
Seems that connecting thru ODBC is not really reliable..
So we ended it using Delphi (not VDS) and a real SQL server component. |

Thanks Marty,
If I create the DSN manually (In the Windows Control Panel)
I can connect to the remote SQL server just fine.
My problem is that I don't want the end user to have to manually configure ODBC sources. |
