 Problem with conversion to SQL
Hello I really need some help. I'm trying to convert aplications that use TPS (Clarion 5.5e) to use SQL Server 7.0. I'm doing everithing according to two articles: Stephen Mull's Guide to converting to MS-SQL Scott Ferrett - How To Convert Your Database To SQL and everything seems to go OK, but when I'm running Synchronizer and trying to select the dictionary which is going to store SQL tables the following error occures: 'Could Not Connect to Database. Error returned from Server: ODBC.DLL Could Not Be Loaded (1)' I'm afraid I don't have the proper software on my workstation. The reason is that I'm starting with SQL Server so my knowledge seems to not be good enough. I will be grateful for help. Thanks in advance Marta Gorecka, Poland

Do you have started SQL server, and do you pass owner name in tables in dictionary name of sql server?

Hi Marta, are you compiling your app in 16 bits so you need the rigth ODBC driver. Pass your app to 32 bits and your problem will dissapear. Regards, Mauricio Rosario, Argentina

What operating system are you using? Do you have MDAC installed on your machine? There are additional templates available at my website which might help, if/when you find using the Synchronizer is a waste of time. You should also consider Capesoft's Filemanager 3 (Sorry, I think that is what it is called) the time you save using this product will more than pay for its cost.

Hello In dictionary I put global variable !GLO:Owner, which I initialize in my aplication '<server_name>,<database_name>,<user>,<password>' Did you mean this? Regards, Marta Quote:

Yes I mean that. Can you connect to tables defining in dictionary with your program? If you can that mean maybe is problemin some steps, but if you don't than mean something is wrong with security over domain or sql Server(wnat is type of autentification on server)

Hello Mauricio, I've checked my ODBC drivers and they seems to be 32 bits, so you can be right, but how I can change my app to this 32 bits? Thanks, Marta Quote:

 Problem with conversion to SQL
The situation is as follows: I have a simple aplication written in Clarion and using database TPS, which works on local computer. Now I want to use SQL, but I do not want to loose my data neither to put them into server 'by hands'. If I change my old database's driver to MSSQL and create SQL database on SQL Server and put this 'GLO:Owner' variable everithing is OK, I can connect with no problem. But if I want to convert exactly the same dictionary that error occure. Although I would like to be able convert my old datebases to SQL and do not have to create tables on Server manualy, I would like just to create database and nothing more - I hope it is possible. Thanks for your advices, Regards Marta Quote:

Hi Marta, Take a look at File Manager 3 from CapeSoft. It makes TPS to SQL conversion effortless. Automatically creates the tables, copies the tps data accross, and continues to manage and upgrade your database automatically from your application! http://www.capesoft.com/accessories/fm3sp.htm. Please don't hesitate to ask any further questions. Thanks. -- -------------------------- Lesley Dean CapeSoft www.capesoft.com
