Do you have an T3 Editor on the Windows box? If so, try using the SQL Query window from the editor with the appropriate data source to make a connection. If it can, you should then be able to eliminate the Mac side as the source of the problem.
You mentioned that you can see the attempt at a connection in the Users window of Butler. It is a TCP/IP port that is set up and not program linking, right? Also where was the original taf file created? I seem to recall problems with taf files that were originally set up with Program Linking rather than TCP/IP after they were moved to a Windows box. The Butler version that was on that promo CD did not have any limitations on connections to the best of my knowledge. One other thing to look at is whether the appropriate port is opened to the machine running Butler. I think it needs port 8682 and of course this should be set up in both the datasource, and on the port in Butler. Also make sure that the port is activated on Butler. I don't think the references to the old P.SQL drivers would cause this problem. Since Pervasive came into the picture in 98 I have always had both P.SQL and Butler drivers installed on my Win boxes.
