I have recently set up the QODBC driver on my server.  The test file DisplaySQL.asp found on the QODBC website works fine.  However, I am unable to access QuickBooks through the driver from any other file until after I access the file named "DisplaySQL.asp" in a given session.  I am able to rename other scripts to "DisplaySQL.asp" and they will run without problems.  Any help?

You can only have one company file open at any given time in QuickBooks. So your connection needs to be closed, before you can open another connection to another company file. This is a QuickBooks limitation.

Let me rephrase:  I can only access one script or web address and it has to be called "DisplaySQL.asp".  Any other script will not run until I have accessed "DisplaySQL.asp" in a given session.  Then I can link to other pages, run other queries, with out problem.  But only as long as the first page I access is "DisplaySQL.asp".  I am only using one company file.

By the sounds of things "DisplaySQL.asp" is opening the connection to QuickBooks which starts QuickBooks and opens the company file and the other things you are running don't. Recheck your connection string and your setup. See: How can I see QuickBooks data in a Internet Explorer Browser using Windows XP?  for more background info on using IIS and QODBC.
