Connect to DB via ODBC but without DSN and ODBC-Manager-Entry
« on: July 08, 2020, 01:09:48 pm »
Hi Folks,

question:
I have the scenario with a DB-App as follows:
Location of App: central File-server (standalone-EXE)
Clients: Call that App on the shared folder from their client-computers.

Now the Problem: Not all clients have the Driver (IBM DB2) installed on their client-machines, and therefore no DSN and/or Driver-Entry in their ODBC-Manager

Do i just have to drop the dll in the App-Folder on the share? How would i point MyConn.Driver to that DLL, when i cannot use the string "iSeries Access ODBC Driver" (as all the examples suggest)?
