I am jsut trying to test out a connetion, and I have copied the data file to my local laptop (.qbw file), but cannot seen to get the ODBC connection set up.  So my first question is, do I need to run this on the same machine as the QuickBooks applicaiton?  Or do I jsut need the file, and the QODBC driver?

QODBC talks to QuickBooks which then talks to the companyname.qbw file, so QODBC needs to find QuickBooks on the machine or another machine vie the QODBC Remote Connector.

See: How do I connect to QuickBooks for the first time? and I do not want to install QuickBooks on every machine. How do I setup QODBC Remote? for further information.
