ODBC

Open DataBase Connectivity (ODBC) is a system provided in Windows to allow exchanging data between different database applications.

 

Go to Control Panel -> Administrative tools to find ODBC Data Sources (32&64-bit) applications.

 

ASPRunner.NET allows you to extract data from an ODBC Data Source Name (DSN). A DSN is a convenient way of storing all of the datasource connection information (file name, path, user I.D, connect password, database type, etc.) under a simple name.

 

If you want to use ASPRunner.NET with databases like MySQL, Informix, or MS SQL server, you need to install and configure appropriate ODBC drivers for your database. You can find links to the appropriate ODBC drivers below.
