I can't generate a log file as I don't have a C-Drive
and the logpath seems to be hard wired!

I only saw one stable msi driver ! (but I guess I looked in the wrong place)

No, 2 days (luxury)

I have solved the connect problem by rebuilding the database with
--encoding=SQL_ANSII, I guess the database default to some other
encoding schema - I bet it's in the documentation somewhere :) this
allows the windows ODBC drivers to work (mostly) but now
fails with my datawindow objects :( it seem the from ODBC 2 -> 3
the TIMESTAMP field has changed some how, and the datawindow
can't deal with it (first guess)!
Is there some way to force the driver/database to use the old 2.0 ODBC
format ?
Cheers,
