This is an issue because UV is currently a 32bit app which will run on a 64 bit platform. The 64bit ODBC driver will work fine in isolation but will not link to Universe under the CONNECT manner. You could create a verb ISQL which would link to isql, provided by the Microsoft ODBC driver from memory, but this is not ideal. ---- And if you actually have BCI working on 64 bit Linux, which ODBC driver did you use? Are there any 'gotchas' when installing it? In that regard I am totally at the mercy of our sys admin since he is the only one who installs anything on Linux. He installed a 64 bit ODBC driver and from a Linux shell he can connect to the SQL Server box I want to connect to with no problem. I followed the documentation in setting up BCI but when I try to use CONNECT in a Basic program I always get a memory error.
