Open Data Base Connectivity
is a system provided in Windows to allow a range of different
database applications to exchange data. Click on My
Computer - Control Panel where you should find an icon named ODBC.
ASPRunner allows you to
extract data from an ODBC Data Source Name (DSN). A DSN is simply a
convenient way of storing all of the datasource connect information
(file name, path, user I.D, connect password, database type etc)
under a simple name.
ASPRunner comes with instant
support of Oracle, SQL server database, and a number of file-based
databases such as Microsoft Access, Microsoft Excel, FoxPro, Paradox,
and Text files. If you want to use ASPRunner with database like MySQL
or Informix, you have to install and configure appropriate ODBC
drivers for your database. See topic Where
can I download latest ODBC drivers? to find appropriate ODBC
driver for your database.
