Thanks Victoras,

The data is in a DB2 database, as are a number of stored procedures I need to call, so ODBC still seems like the best fit. I'm also a little cautious when it comes to SQLite when the database is reaching the many millions of records size. I know SQLite proponents will swear by it for large data sets, but I haven't had time to trial this.

So the question is still 'Will Revolution use fileDSN' configuration to access databases using ODBC?

Thank,
--Scott

Hi Scott,

The simplest way is using SQLite files, then you even do not need ODBC, and this will be 100% crossplatform and works "out of the box".

Best regards

Hi,

Will Revolution work with a FileDSN to make an ODBC connection to a database? I've tried a little without success. I found some entries in the Rev forums that concluded that it was broken (http://forums.runrev.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2382) and they were going to submit a bug report. But I could not locate this report in the QCC.

I'd like to make my app self-contained and avoid making the user configure a DSN, or make registry entries to be able to connect to a remote database.

Any knowledge out there on this subject?

Thanks,
--Scott
