2213.0. "ODBC V2.0 access Rdb 4.1?" by ORAREP::OSOSPS::HIRAIWA (Yoshitaka Hiraiwa/SPS) Fri Jun 06 1997 06:42

	Hello,

	I have a customer who uses the ODBC driver V1.1 with MS Access
	to access an Rdb 4.1 database using TCPIP.  

	They want to use the ODBC driver V2.0 with MS Acess95 to access
	an Rdb 4.1 database using TCPIP.

	Can they access it ?

	Best regards,
	Yoshitaka Hiraiwa/SPS/MCS/DEC-J

    The SQLServices that came with 4.1 didn't support TCPIP. I would
    suggest you install 6.1-02 SQLServices. This should work with Rdb
    4.1...

2213.2Should work but Rdb 4.1 not officially supportedORASQS::OXBURYOracle Corporation, Rdb Desktop Group|DTN 381-2704Fri Jun 06 1997 10:0210
    However, Rdb 4.1 has not been supported for a long time now and I 
    know that we didn't run any tests against it with SQL/Services 6.1.
    We try not to do anything that will break support for old versions
    of Rdb, but because we don't test against them, there's no guarantee
    that it will work and if it doesn't, then its extremely unlikely that
    it'll get fixed (for example, we don't even have a working version of
    Rdb 4.1 on our cluster). On the other hand, if it does work, then
    that's great.
