Really? All you have to do is set trusted=yes in the conn string, afaik. But I could be wrong. We only use SQL security accounts in our environment.
I'm sure it's been mentioned before but this is a good resource for connection strings - https://www.connectionstrings.com/sql-server/ -- rk -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech <profoxtech-boun...@leafe.com> On Behalf Of Paul H.

The only requirement for the pc is a 32-bit MS SQL ODBC driver must be installed, but no DSN needs to be created on the computer. Also, you must have SQL Credentials configured on the SQL Server as you cannot use Windows Authentication over ODBC. Here's a short clip of the important parts of the SQLConnect.prg I use: lcDSNLess = 'Driver=' + ALLTRIM(lcDriver) + ';' + ; 'Server=' + ALLTRIM(lcServer) + ';' + ; 'Uid=' + ALLTRIM(lcUid) + ';' + ; 'Pwd=' + ALLTRIM(lcPWD) + ';' + ; 'Database=' + ALLTRIM(lcDbName) * Set SQL TimeOut Wait =SQLSETPROP(0,"ConnectTimeOut",3) * Suppress ODBC error dialog =SQLSETPROP(0,"DispWarnings",.f.) * Suppress login dialog =SQLSETPROP(0,"DispLogin",3) CLEAR ERROR lnConnection = SQLSTRINGCONNECT(lcDSNLess,.T.) lnErrorRows = AERROR(laError) Then check to see if lnErrorRows is greater than 0 to catch any errors. If the lnConnection value is greater than 1, then you can start sending pass through commands and getting results. Hope that helps! Paul H.
