Hi,
I have installed QODBC in my workstation. The QuickBooks 2007-08 Premier is installed in my colleague's workstation but the QuickBooks data file is placed in the server. May I know how do I use QODBC to connect to the QuickBooks data file in the server?
Thanks.
Regards,
Sek Wee

QODBC talks to QuickBooks on your workstation and QuickBooks talks to the company file. Simply open the company file in QuickBooks and QODBC will work with it. See: How do I connect to QuickBooks for the first time?

do you mean that I have installed the QODBC on my colleague PC so that QODBC can talk to the company file?

QODBC doesn't talk to the company file directly, it talks to QuickBooks. Either install QuickBooks on your workstation or install QODBC on your colleague's PC.
