Thanks, but since I am unfamiliar using this kind of database connection, I
was hoping you could help me out some more.
I did the following. In the ODBC Data Source Administrator of Windows 98 I
have created a new file DSN. This DSN is configured to use a certain Access
2000 database on one of my harddisks. The DSN is called 'phpodbc.dsn'. Then,
in the file odbc.php I do the following:
<?php
$odbcId = odbc_connect("dsn=phpodbc.dsn", "admin", ""); // db doesn't
need username/password
?>
When I access this PHP file with Internet Explorer, I get the following
error message:
Warning: SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not
found and no default driver specified, SQL state IM002 in SQLConnect in
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\odbc.php on line 3.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Alex
