RE: [UV] ODBC Account Flavor
All our accounts (including ODBC) are either PI or PI/Open flavour. However, as this is very close to IDEAL, it's no surprise that we don't have any (serious) problems. (If you exclude the fact that HS.UPDATE.FILEINFO seems to close the wIntegrate connection rather too often for comfort :-( Cheers, Wol -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Firl Sent: 20 April 2004 01:05 To: U2-Users Distribution List (E-mail) Subject: [UV] ODBC Account Flavor I'm plowing through a project to setup a standard UV-ODBC table and column definition for our application.

RE: [UV] ODBC Account Flavor
We've got some websites accessing pre-existing pick flavoured accounts, and another application accessing a fully compliant SQL Schema in a pick flavoured account - a new account built from scratch with CREATE-SCHEMA etc. Both are working fine - from universe 9.6 through to 10.1. My only .02 is that the fully compliant schema seems to interact better with odbc SQL clients - probably because using CREATE-TABLE commands makes the dictionaries exactly what they should be, and the creation of things like UV_TABLES.
