RE: [PHP-DB] ODBC Woes

Nope, it depends on the driver manager you are using, and I believe the first example has been deprecated in nearly all cases. Why do you need to use the first? Just use variables: $dsn="dsnname"; $uid="user"; $pwd="password"; odbc_conenct($dsn, $uid, $pwd) Best regards, Andrew Hill Director of Technology Evangelism OpenLink Software http://www.openlinksw.com Universal Data Access & Data Integration Technology Providers > -----Original Message----- > From: Jonathan Hilgeman [mailto:jhilgeman@ecx.com] > Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2001 4:05 PM > To: php-db@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP-DB] ODBC Woes > > > Okay, all I need to know is this: > Some people say that they can only connect with: > odbc_connect("DSN=Datasource;UID=username;PWD=password","",""); > > Others say that doesn't work, and that they can only connect with: > odbc_connect("Datasource","username","password"); > > I am confused.
