Yeah, if you're using a custom driver, you're dead on. That connection string box is just a way to put extra params on the URL if you're using a built-in driver, since you can't write the URL directly.
Speaking of which, what driver are you using? I haven't bothered to upgrade from the built-in one, because I haven't had any problems. There a specific reason you didn't use the built-in one? cheers, barneyb On Fri, 18 Feb 2005 16:39:28 -0500, Christian Cantrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Very close!
