Except for SQLite I don't have a strong opinion about DSN setup. However, for SQLite I think Gnucash needs to control the whole interaction and be able to "force" GDA to use SQLite. We (read: I) want the SQLite backend to replace the XML-File backend and "become" the new "File Backend"... > -chris -derek -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key available _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
