[RBASE-L] - Re: ODBC in XP - Razzak's Reply

Gunnar,

01.     Check the correct database name and the path associated
        with your System DSN using ODBC Administrator
02.     If you would like to use different databases, you'll need to
        create a separate DSN for each different database with a
        different DSN name.
03.     Using the latest version of R:BASE 6.5++ for Windows,
        and the updated R:BASE ODBC Driver bundled with the latest
        installers (Build:1.864xRT03) and higher, if your database has
        the Owner Password, it will prompt you for the ODBC Dialog,
        otherwise it will not.
Hope that helps!

Very Best Regards,

Razzak.

Hi again.

I run XP and ODBC but I am 6.5++  1.864 and it works fine so maybe the 
solution is to upgrade to the latest

But I can add a question:

I run Excel (please forgive me) and do an ODBC- query to import data from 
my RBASE.

Previously when I refreshed my data I was asked with odbc-box to confirm 
the database and add user name password (blank in my case) .

Now I am not prompted any longer instead it uses previus database,  which 
sometimes is convenient but sometimes when I want to do the same query on 
a different database it is not good at all.

Has this behaviour anything to with version 1.864?

I know I can start query in Excel and modify the query, but I have not 
found where I can qualify the database.

Can any one give me some light on this so I do not have to learn VB 
scripting in excel
