Hello,I dont know If this is a good place to ask but I will do so.I have a Access application that is connected with a mySQL database.For the connection there is installed a myODBC driver. It works fine, but the firsttime the application has to have some information from the database the myODBC screen will popup and asked me to enter a username. Is there a way I can automatiqly fill in the username. So I dont have to bother the user with this popupscreen?ThanxxBjorn<edit> Moved to Other Topics </edit> |

For other ODBCs, the information is stored in the registry. It is possible that you can just create a reg file that will do this for the user. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBCYou could then deploy the reg file using a login script or through the installation of your software.Tara |

Just take a look at the registry key mentioned above. Then see if one exists for the one that you setup on your machine. Then make the modification to it, if possible. Then you can export that information into a reg file using File..Export. When it saves with a reg extension, all that you have to do is double click on the file for it to load the registry with the information. To take a look at the file, just right click and go to edit.Tara |
