This is yours: $connect = odbc_connect( "DSN=Name" , "UserID", "Passwrd" ) or die ("Couldn't connect to datasource."); You don't need to write DSN=Name. Only the name is needed. So: $connect = odbc_connect( "Name" , "UserID", "Passwrd" ) or die ("Couldn't connect to datasource."); ----- Original Message ----- From: "Donna Clark" <dclark@sasdesign.co.uk> To: <php-db@lists.php.net> Sent: Wednesday, October 04, 2000 11:23 AM Subject: [PHP-DB] ODBC connection- can anybody help.... I have my PHP my php on server 1 and I am trying to connect to a SQL Server database on Server 2. I have set up an ODBC datasource on Server 2. But when I try to connect using the following command : $connect = odbc_connect( "DSN=Name" , "UserID", "Passwrd" ) or die ("Couldn't connect to datasource."); I receive the following warning: Warning: SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified, SQL state IM002 in SQLConnect.... How can I make it look on server 2 for the DSN ?? Any help would be greatly appreciated ! Donna.
