How can I connect to SQL Server
from a Macintosh? It appears that the MS provided driver with Office for the Mac no longer works with SQL 7.0. It works fine with SQL 6.5 and below. www.snap.de. They produce a DAL/ODBC DBMS called PrimeBase that can be used to front-end other ODBC applications. There are 32-bit 680x0 ODBC drivers on the Visual FoxPro for Power Macintosh CD version 3.0. The 32-bit drivers (v2.11 from Visigenic, v6.0b3 of the SQL Server driver). These work with 16-bit FoxPro 2.6a as well. One issue is that on MacOS 8.5.1, you get Type 1, Type 3 or Type 10 errors when you quit the FoxPro 2.6, BUT if you compile a 680x0 executable it works ok. You can also get Mac drivers from http://www.openlinksw.co.uk/ http://www.iodbc.org/ has an SDK |
