I am experiencing problems with FLEXODBC Version 4.00.24. When  this Version is installed I am unable to see the Catalog of tables available in the FIlelist.cfg. I am presented with only one file from the list of files registed in Filelist.cfg and furthermore I can only access one record form this file.  As soon as I reinstall the old Version of FLEXODBC (Version 2.0.25)  I have no problems seeing the Catalog tables or accessing the data for the data files.

Additional Information.

I am using PowerBuilder Version 7.0

Dataflex  Data Files (dataflex Version 2.3b)

Demo Program VBDEMO works perfectly with FLEXODBC 4.00.24

I assume that the problem is neither with PowerBuilder nor with the new FLEXODBC DRIVER VERSION 4. I believe that the FLEXODBC Driver needs to be supplied with additional configuration parameters or Connection string parameters to enable it to correctly read the catalog of Dataflex Data files.

Regards,

Krishna Narine

Try clicking the Database Painter and selecting Design, and Options. Uncheck the Use Powersoft Repository option. Reconnect to your database for the change to take effect.

PowerBuilder Transaction Properties

DBMS ODBC
UserId Not used
DBPass Not used
Database Not used
ServerName Not used. This value will be populated by PowerBuilder in the connection profile after a connection is made.
LogID Not used
LogPass Not Used
DBParm At a minimum, there should be a ConnectString that contains the DSN (Data Source Name).

ConnectString='DSN=DataFlex Data32'

I have also emailed you directly a new DLL has a ODBC API 3.0 fix that may help. Please let me know how it goes.

You have to also include the Cursor Parameter in your application INI File to allow the compiled version of the application to work.

[dataflex.db]
DBMS=ODBC
DBParm="ConnectString='DSN=DataFlex Data32',ConnectOption='SQL_DRIVER_CONNECT,
SQL_DRIVER_NOPROMPT',CursorLib='ODBC_Cur_Lib'"
