Hi,
Can someone provide a link to Chris Glazier's video 'Database Access Using ODBC with Visual COBOL'.
I believe there are other videos in the same series, but I am not able to find them.
Thanks,

what trouble do you have?
it is so easy to use this using ODBC-Driver
01 sql-connectstring pic x(512).
01 datenbank pic x(40).
01 run-flag pic 9(01).
*> this string must be a part of your defined odbc-drivers
move 'Driver=SQL Server;server=sql-ip-address;database=database-name;uid=username;pwd=userpassword;' to sql-connectstring
main section.
initialize sqlcode run-flag
perform sql-connect
if run-flag <> 0
stop run
end-if
.
sql-connect section.
EXEC SQL
connect using :sql-connectstring as :datenbank
END-EXEC
if sqlcode <> 0
move 1 to run-flag
end-if
.
for more information send me a private message, thanks
Hi Luis,
This YouTube playlist contains a link to the video you mentioned; it includes the videos Chris has created related to using Visual COBOL for Visual Studio.
Hope this helps,

Thanks Blair.
This is perfect!
Hi Greiner,
I am at a very early stage in this project.
I guess you'll be hearing from me again as I get deeper.
Thanks for your help.
