[PHP-DB] connecting SQL 7.0

[LeTortorec, Jean-Louis]

$a=odbc_connect("mydsn","myid","mypwd") or die("Database is down");
echo "$a";
 
 
When I execute this script, I got $a being "Resource id #1".
but  $a should be an integer in order to do a query like
$b=odbc_exec($a,"select * from mytable");
 
 
the dsn I created is a system DSN, as suggested my a member of the mailing
list.
I run PHP4.0 and Apache 1.3 under W2000.
 
Any suggestion?
 
Thanks.
