Just when I get smug with my 'fine' RBase programming skills, another issue
jumps up and hits me on the head! With help from you good folks, I have the
Microsoft DSN-less connection working just fine.

When I try to use scconect to another RBase database I get the 'Data Source
Not found and No default driver specified' (thanks for the descriptive
error codes 'Bill'). Both Databases reside in the same directory
(E:/SKJII). The database I want is called 'Leads'. If I attach using the
DSN it works fine.

Here is my code: (We use " instead of ')

SCONNECT ";driver=R:BASE 7.1 Database Driver (*.rb1);dbq=e:/skjii/Leads"

How much more idiot-proof can you get than copping sample code and changing
the path and filename? Do any of you smart people have an idea of what I am
doing wrong?

 P.S. this is the third time I typed this because it was pointed out to me
 that I was using rich text and not everyone could read my posts. Now if I
 had only known that the 'Notes' spell checker would blow out the whole
 document because it didn't like the other /. Third time is a charm!
