Hi Dorin

Thanks for all your troubles.

Yes I do. Right now I have it on the local machine so is doru =
localhost/3050:myDB or DEVE1/3050:myDB DEVE1 is the machine name

>h = SQLSTRINGCONNECT("DRIVER={Firebird/InterBase(r)
>driver};UID=SYSDBA;PWD=masterkey;DBNAME=doru/3050:myDB;")

Still further I studied the ODCB class that I use to create DSNs, the
following is the theoretical code that I have put together as per the class
CreateUserDSN() which should work, and to an extent it does work:

DECLARE INTEGER SQLConfigDataSource IN odbccp32 ;
INTEGER, INTEGER, STRING, STRING

lnSuccess = SQLConfigDataSource(0, 1, "Firebird/Interbase(r) driver", ;
"DSN=C07_VSO3Data_FB" + CHR(0) ;
+ "CharacterSet=NONE" + CHR(0) ;
+ "Client=" + CHR(0) ;
+ "Dbname=C:\vso3\projects\c07\data\vso3.fdb" + CHR(0) ;
+ "Dialect=3" + CHR(0) ;
+ "Driver=C:\WINNT\system32\OdbcJdbc.dll" + CHR(0) ;
+ "JdbcDriver=Iscdbc" + CHR(0) ;
+ "NoWait=N" + CHR(0) ;
+ "Password=masterkey" + CHR(0) ;
+ "QuotedIdentifier=N" + CHR(0) ;
+ "ReadOnly=N" + CHR(0) ;
+ "Role=" + CHR(0) ;
+ "User=SYSDBA" + CHR(0) ;
)

Try this in the command window, what happened for me is that the DSN name
is filled in the ODBC configuration box but none of the other values are
recognized this is still required to be done manually.

Any idea what might be happening or what I am doing wrong?

I tried removing CHR(0)s but that is not the problem and I have run out of
ideas. Just the above 2 statements execute and we can do it programatically.
