Subject: Re: [mSQL] Anyone have GORTA 32 installed?
Message-Id: <Pine.GSO.3.95.970402091421.3476C-100000@cannes.bmc.com>

I did the same thing you did on a WinNT 4.0 workstation and I can get
Access to see the tables in my database (it does contact mSQL on my Unix
box and dialogue with it), but when I try to link a table with the Access
database, I get access exceptions and Access dies to Dr. Watson. With
Perl and Win32::ODBC, I can connect but when I go to get a list of tables,
I get another access exception and Perl dies.

I would really love to solve this. mSQL is great, but I could convince
even the faint-hearted to use mSQL if they could query it with Access and
Excel!!! Looks to me like gorta32.dll or the setup procedure or something
needs some revisions???
