I download and installed mxODBC, I'm trying to do some small testing
so I'm using the the Text and Excel drivers under windows
When I try so a Connect() I get
>>> db = ODBC.Windows.Connect ("TestDatabase")
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<pyshell#24>", line 1, in ?
db = ODBC.Windows.Connect ("TestDatabase")
NotSupportedError: ('S1C00', 84, '[Microsoft][ODBC Excel Driver]Driver
not capable ', 4226)
When I try using DriverConnect, I get
>>> db = ODBC.Windows.DriverConnect ("TestPersonDB")
Traceback (innermost last):
File "<pyshell#22>", line 1, in ?
db = ODBC.Windows.DriverConnect ("TestPersonDB")
OperationalError: ('IM002', 0, '[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data
source name not found and no default driver specified', 4316)
Any ideas?
Both databases are in the System DSN
