Has anyone tried creating an ODBC connection to an SQL server, then get the scanner to record data to it? I copied my scan6db.mdb file to my SQL server and imported it into a new database. (note - my remote connection to this SQL server is tunneled through SSH). I then set up an ODBC connection on my scanning system to the SQL server. Next, I went to the Tools/Database Administration dialog and selected "New DSN...", which asks to connect to an existing ODBC data source or create a new one. Since I already created one, I selected "existing", then "Next>" -- then, I'm presented with a list of data sources -- but the only sources listed are those using a Microsoft Access driver. Since this didn't appear to be what I needed -- I went back and selected "create a new ODBC data source" -- I told it the name of the ODBC source I had already created, gave it the user name and password, then hit "Next>" -- the next windows says "You have choosen(sic) to create a new data source named ISS_Scanner_DB using the Access ODBC driver. <blah><blah>" Is the scanner software limited to using Access drivers only? Any way to accomplish what I want? If so, what is the impact on the network during a scan? I don't see it being a big issue, but I don't want to bombard my segment of the network with tons of data between my scanning system and the db server. -Tim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
