Hi ,

Thanks for looking into my request,based on available information freeTDS
is also part of RODBC but in connection string we need to use driver name
as freeTDS instead of sql server ,i tried this way only but no luck.I'm
suspecting that the way that i did is not correct ,i may need to install
freeTDS separately and need to configure it on my machine.
Attached is the screen shot for your reference,can you please help me
to how to install and how to configure it on my machine(i'm running with
windows 8).

Thanks in advance ..

Manu.
