However, the exact configuration of client drivers and ODBC software required to connect to a particular target database server can vary from one installation to another. Furthermore, the OpenEdge DataServer for ODBC is only "certified" to work with a select group and combination of drivers and target database servers. "Certification" means that the drivers and/or databases have been tested by OpenEdge to ensure ODBC compliance and that the ODBC DataServer has been adjusted internally to handle known cases where non-compliance exists. Certified drivers that are supplied by Data Direct Technologies are installed in OpenEdge when you purchase the DataServer product. There drivers are installed into the $DLC/bin/odbc directory.
For more information, refer to
OpenEdge Getting Started: Installation and Configuration, the OpenEdge Product Availability Guide available at
Progress Communities/ and the OpenEdge Release Notes for specific versions and environments supported by OpenEdge. You should also always check further with vendor documentation from your database, driver and/or client software provider to ensure proper ODBC installation and database configuration.
