I have a small WD Mobile project for which I need a companion online database. I'm using a php generator and started to write the app with SQL Server, then thought how much easier it would be if I could just use hfsql classic or cs instead. How can I supply the odbc driver to a 3rd party to install on their server? Can I use hfsql classic for low numbers of users?

Thanks

Hi Peter,

the odbc driver installer is available for download on PCSoft web site,
for each version and upgrade.

As for HFSQL classic, if the files are on the same machine (no oplock)
than the web site, I would say yes, but it will be slower. And of
course, it depends on what you call "samll"

Best regards

to deploy the odbc drivers check this help page:
http://doc.windev.com/en-US/…

If it's for low numbers of users you can use it in classic mode but be carefull with the opportunistic locking in Windows and all the security problems associated.

Hi Peter,

Thanks both,

In the help file it says, "If necessary, the setup program of the ODBC driver (WX200PACKODBC.EXE) is found in the "Install\ODBC" directory of WinDev or WebDev."

I can't find this file in the WD Mobile directory anywhere, so I guess it is for Windev and Webdev only.

I don't have WM but did you check the instalation DVD. sometimes you can find this kind of stuff in it.

Thanks for the idea, Paulo, I'll check the DVD.

I have the dvd for WM19 but only downloaded files for WM20.

Cheers
