Kraa, I'm not sure why the two sample apps are using different connection calls; It's not terribly relevant - both are legal.
Driver manager and driver are not typically dependent on each other, no. The fact that the connection fails in odbctest is probably due to a missing parameter that iODBC wants in the DSN or the environment variables. You can look at error messages for the Merant driver - I'm not going to get into debugging it :) If you want to try OpenLink's ODBC drivers, you will find they work fine with PHP and Progress. I suggest you download the Multi-Tier driver from our site - they comes free with a 2 user connection. I would also suggest that you compile --with-iodbc, as it is in greater use and has been more thoroughly tested with PHP. Free support is available as well if you have difficulties, at: http://www.openlinksw.com/support/suppindx.htm.
