Can you please tell me what you mean by right version of everything? In my current freetds.config file, it says "freetds.conf,v 1.12". Is this the correct version? Should I be using TDS Version 8.0 for both SQL Server 2000 and 2008? Thanks, Betty -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James K.

The ODBC 3.0 specification was not 64-bit clean, meaning there were places where pointers were passed as integers. AIUI this has all been resolved if you use the right versions of everything, especially of the Driver Manager.
