Hi Todd,
do you want to connect to an ODBC data source w/o creating a DSN in ODBC
Manager/Administrator on Win/Mac?
If so, there was a discussion in October 2010 in this list with the topic "Does
revDB support FileDSN or Connection Strings?"
The following is an example which should work under
So the PHP DSNLess Connection string syntax doesn't work for
revOpenDatabase. Too bad.
But if PHP can do it on both mac and windows it must be possible. The
syntax looks like this

That can be substituted for a DSN in php

I am on a Mac but it needs to be Xplat.
I don't think you *need* a DSN on either platform. My evidence is that PHP
doesn't require it.
the PHP function odbc_connect() can use either a DSN or a DSN-less
connection string can be used.

BTW you will get the contents of the entire line by using filter temp with

I think filter works on lines not chars so if you want to include lines

Hi Craig,
filter "abcdef" with "c" gives empty because abcdef is not c
filter "abcdef" with "*c*" returns abcdef because abcdef contains c.
Filter affects lines, not chars. If you want to remove all c chars in abcdef
then you need to use the replace command:
replace "c" with "x" in "abcdef"
-
The filter command works on the entire line. The way you are using it, only
lines that contain only the letter C will show up. Instead, use:
filter temp with "*c*"
