Hi,
I am trying to get my program to connect to a BusinessVision database.
It seems that BV uses unnamed databases. My program uses an ODBC
connection and I can't find a way to connect to the unnamed database. I
could install the DDFs and create a DSN but this would have to be done
at a remote client's site - I don't know if it would be easier to
connect to BusinessVisions unnamed database.

I'm using BusinessVision 7 and Pervasive.SQL 8.

Thanks in advance.

Pervasive.SQL requires that all newer databases be named to be used in
an Engine DSN. However, the application DOES have the ability to
create the Engine DSN on the fly (at the time of the connection),
called a "connectionless DSN".

For your own work, I recommend simply creating the DSN that you need,
and you'll be set from there.
