Opening SQL 6.5 Report in Ver 8.1

Post by Chris_Ransom_(Guest) » Fri Sep 22, 2006 7:26 am

We are having trouble opening reports that were written using R&R 6.5 SQL in R&R 8.1 on one particular PC. When we try, we get the error message "DB Access:[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified". However we can create a new report on this PC and we have set-up other PCs in the office in a similar way and they do seem to be able to open reports created using the older version. Have you any idea where we are going wrong?

Add a section called DATABASE to the file c:windowsRSW.INI.____In this section add the line:____USEQECONNECT=1____and see if that helps.____Kathleen__R&R Support
