ODBC Drivers and Data Source Names

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.
    • When using HCOSS, you must use an ODBC driver for SQL Server 2008 or later.
  • 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. Do this using the ODBC Data Source Administrator, available from Start > All Programs > Micro Focus Studio Enterprise Edition x.x > ODBC Connection Tools > ODBC Data Source Administrator.
