Default ODBC Driver Install - 07-06-2004 , 09:21 AM






Hi,

I'd like to install the Pervasive SQL 2000 ODBC driver onto a W98 client PC,
to enable an app to use the CaptureIT database. However, I don't want to
install the whole stuff, just the ODBC drivers. We're using P.SQL 2000
Workgroup, by the way, on a Windows 2000 server.
How can I install just the ODBC drivers?

Any help appreciated.

SteveW

You must install the entire client, as far as I know. Trying to manually strip
out only the ODBC part might take quite a bit of work, and it just isn't worth
the hours of time needed to isolate files one by one.

That is a pain, because not only will it take a long time, but also give
people functionality that they don't need, or that I don't want them to
have.

I know that feeling! You could, after an install of the client probably
delete most of the .exe files in C:\PVSW. This would prevent direct
access to most functionality such as the PCC.

There is a setting in the ptksetup.ini file to NOT install the
utilities.
This should be documented in the
http://www.pervasive.com/library/
under
Pervasive Library -> Documentation -> Pervasive.SQL -> Pervasive.SQL
SDK -> (pick a version) -> Embedding Guide for Pervasive.SQL or
Installation Toolkit Handbook V8.5 (8.50)
