Thread: odbc-drv wouldn't install under win nt

is there anyone who can tell me how to install the odbc-drv under win nt 4.0
i downloaded the last version 6-30-0245 but the setup-program does
nothing?!!?
is there a way to adapt the registry by hand?
PS: as i read before the 32-bit version of the odbc-drv should work under nt
too
although the documentation says it's for win 95 only. is that right?

We have quite a few NT users who have not reported any problems with the setup
process.   Perhaps you are comparing this installation to earlier versions
(pre-insight).   The old version would automatically invoke the driver setup as
part of the installation.   Now you must start the "ODBC Data Source
Administrator" yourself.  I don't recommend editing the registry by hand.

Needs to be updated to include NT.

Download it again.  The postdrv.exe file was corrupted a while back.  The
current version is at 6-30-0246 anyway.
