Re: MSSQL - ODBC - OSX

It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 63609
interpreted = N
texte = Nitai, I can only hope that Le was referring to OSX (actually I don't hope that since I have 2 new servers sitting here waiting to be hooked to the new MSSQL server) because otherwise he/she is dead wrong. I have been successfully using WenDNA-ODBC-MSSQL using DNA for windows for over a year with magnificent results. Its what led me to purchase the new setup (but with OSX servers instead). In other words the ODBC code part of DNA is working perfectly with MSSQL. Heck I have even gotten some MSSQL query help from Scott on this list. We have found that the results and performance are excellent even without the native support. But that was windows DNA. I think Le must be mistaken about the ODBC unless he means the OSX version. But since the code set shouldn't be any different and there is no platform specific requirements mentions for ODBC I'm betting this is just a mistake on someone's part. Can we get someone from SMSI to chime in? (not that your help isnt very appreciated Nitia because its the first response I have gotten to date and very much appreciated.:-) I'm going to be stunned if this doesn't work.. Not to mention out thousands of dollars in gear that cant be used as intended :-( Alex On 12/14/05 5:45 PM, "Nitai @ ComputerOil" wrote: > Hi Alex > > WebDNA can only connect to MySQL over ODBC.
