Is it possible for you to trace MS ODBC DM calls and send that log ? That enables the clear picture of what is happening. I tried to download the eval copy of Borland C++ Builder to give a try, but it is ~140 MB, so waiting for your log. If it doesn't help, then I will go ahead and give a try by downloading. > > Borland,s web site says of BDE Error 12550 > > > 12550 Invalid configuration parameter. > > One possible cause for the error: > ODBC ALIASES. > When creating and/or using a BDE alias that is using > an ODBC DSN make sure that the ALIAS parameter "ODBC DSN" is > set to the DSN that you wish to use and that has been created > using ODBC Manager.

Did you tried with the 'system dsn' or 'file dsn' ? And whats the outcome ?
