Hi Chris
Can't MI 4.1 work with any windows ODBC driver? I tried to get writeable
access to the dataFlex db through Access but it failed so my only solution
to this is to export the updated data from MI to Access and use Access's
ODBC connection to update the coloums I want.
Thank you for your answer.
