Hallo Mats, the correct syntax for the SERVER part is Server= [protocol:]Server[,port]
hope this helps Wolfgang Am 16.04.2013 12:19, schrieb Mats Åström:
Has anyone used revOpenDatabase to connect to an MS SQL database? I have been trying to open an ODBC connection using this: put revOpenDatabase("ODBC","DRIVER=SQL Server;SERVER=" & tServerAndPort & ";DATABASE=" & tDBname & ";UID=" & tUser & ";PWD=" & tPsw & ";Trusted_Connection=No",,,) into dbIDThe server connects on port 55999 so tServerAndport contains "theServerIPaddress:55999". I get this error msg in return: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Invalid string or buffer length If only the server IP is provided in the second argument, the resulting message is: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specifiedThe docs says that port is only used only for MySQL an Postgree. Does that mean I cannot use revOpenDatabase to connect to an MS SQL database on a specific port? I am using LC 5.5 on Windows. /Mats _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
