To use ODBC with OpenESQL, you must have the following in place:
- Install at least one ODBC driver of your choice.
- When using the SQL Server driver installed automatically by most Windows operating systems, be sure that the driver corresponds
to the release of SQL Server you are using.
- Install and configure ODBC Driver Manager and the ODBC driver software. See your Driver Manager or Driver vendor documentation
for details.
- Create at least one data source name (DSN) that identifies a database to which you can connect. You can do this using the ODBC Data Source Administrator. For more information, see
To start the ODBC Data Source Administrator.
