Viewing ODBC drivers installed for Windows 2000 and XP

To connect to a Database*pop_defDatabase in Opus, the ODBC drivers*pop_defODBC must be installed on your development machine. The procedure below will check for the ODBC drivers for Windows 2000 and Windows XP machines.

Checking for drivers:

  1. From the Windows desktop select Start > Settings > Control Panel – the Control Panel window will appear on the desktop.

  2. Double-click the Administrative Tools folder and then double-click the Data Sources (ODBC) icon to open the ODBC Administration dialog box.

  3. Click on the Drivers tab in the ODBC Data Source Administrator dialog to view the current drivers installed on your system.

Note:
If the ODBC icon is not present in the Control Panel window, it is most likely that ODBC has not been installed on your machine. You can load ODBC drivers from your original Microsoft Windows CD-ROM.
