Обсуждение: dynasets
Hello, I am currently evaluating a new charactor generator system for a television station for which I work. The system runs on WinNT 4.0. It's called a Pinnacle FX-Deko unit and it quite nice. However, one thing this system MUST do in order to be of any use to us is to access our already existing PostgreSQL database through ODBC. The FXDeko s/w does indeed find my PostgreSQL database and all the tables/fields, but when I try accessing the data, I get an error that states: "DRIVER DOES NOT SUPPORT DYNASETS." I've done a bit of research on dynasets and from what it seems, this is a Microsoft extension that is only supported via Visual Basic, Visual C++ and Access. Does anyone have any ideas on how to get this thing to work without using dynasets? thanks, -- Jim Hines IT Mgr, WDTV NewsChannel 5 Your Hometown News TEL:304.848.5000 FAX:304.842.7501 <http://www.wdtv.com> <jhines@wdtv.com> WDTV NewsChannel 5 is a CBS Affiliate
Hi, what version of driver and PostgreSQL do you use? I've done some ODBC-programming with postgres (postgres 7.1.x, ODBC 7.01.00.0x) an AFAIR, I used dynasets. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Hines" <jhines@wdtv.com> To: <pgsql-odbc@postgresql.org> Sent: Friday, September 14, 2001 8:03 PM Subject: [ODBC] dynasets > Hello, > I am currently evaluating a new charactor generator system for a television > station for which I work.

I'm currently running ODBC v 7.01.0007 and Postgres 7.1.2. At the time I'd written the original letter, I was running ODBC 7.01.0006. PG was the same however. The later version of ODBC has made no difference. I still get the same "Driver does not support dynasets" error.

Doesn't your tool provide .. e.g. cursor library or cursor engine ? regards, Hiroshi Inoue

Being rather new at ODBC, I have to admit that I'm not sure what you mean here. I've heard of the cursor library, but am unable to find any other references to it. Please explain, or give me some links to check out. thx, -- Jim Hines IT Mgr, WDTV NewsChannel 5 Your Hometown News TEL:304.848.5000 FAX:304.842.7501 <http://www.wdtv.com> <jhines@wdtv.com> WDTV NewsChannel 5 is a CBS Affiliate

It's hard to tell if it could use the cursor library. regards, Hiroshi Inoue
