ODBC Connectivity

Post by vinod1 »

Hi,
How can I connect to a Texis database through the ODBC driver provided by thunderstone ? I've installed Texis ODBC in a Win98 machine and I was trying to connect to a WinNT server running thinderstone. But it is returning an error 'Connection failed'.

Please help.

You must make sure that texisdnt is running on the NT server that you are trying to connect to.

Texis is running on an NT server. I was trying to connect using VB6 from a Win98 machine. The same error is repeating.

Note that texisdnt.exe is a specific program you have to start by hand. Have you started it?

Hi Mark,
Thanks. I've already started texisdnt.exe. What was wrong was that I haven't given the full database path. Now it works fine.
