The configuration file contains the specifications for the ODBC drivers installed in the system. For each driver installed, there are two entries. The first section, ODBCDrivers, contains an entry including the driver name and the remark "installed". The name of the driver is predefined by the manufacturer. For ADABAS,
ADABAS D=Installed
is stored here.
The second section is introduced by the name of the installed driver; it is enclosed in square [ ] brackets. For example, a section [ADABAS D] is stored for ADABAS. More entries containing the driver name and setup DLL are stored in this section. These entries are used by the ODBC Administrator to load the corresponding DLL. For ADABAS,
[ADABAS D]
Driver=C:\ADABAS\pgm\sqlod32.dll
Setup=C:\ADABAS\pgm\sqlsp32.dll
is stored here.
The entries for one driver configuration end either with the start of a new driver configuration or with the end of file.
