How do I set up an ODBC database connection in CODESOFT 7 or higher? |
|
| |
- Open CODESOFT. Select Tools > ODBC Administrator.
- The ODBC Administrator will open. Select the appropriate tab for the type of data source you wish to create. In this example, we will create a System DSN. To begin this process, click the System DSN tab.
- Click the Add button to create a new data source.
- Select the driver type that corresponds to the database you will connect to. In this example, we will use the Microsoft dBase driver (for .dbf files). Click Finish to continue.
- Enter a meaningful name and description for the data source you created. If the directory path listed is not the same as the location of the database file you wish to connect to, click the Select Directory button.
- Use the Select Directory dialog box to browse to your database. Once you have the correct directory selected, click the OK button.
- You will see your new data source shown in the list on the System DSN tab. Click the OK button to exit the dialog.
