Freddy, your response wasn't very useful.

- Yes, version 8 for MS SQL SERVER 2000, as can be found in many places in
the documentation. But I tried 4.2 and 7 also with no luck.

- "Why you need this?" So the drivers and iodbctest program can find the
files.

- "Read the manual" - Oh, gee, never thought of that. Maybe next time you
could point to a document or section that would be helpful.

Basically, your response was totally useless. Please don't post if you have
nothing to say.

Gary
