I have trouble when I try to upload an Excel file, I've searched in a lot of places how to solve this, but the solution the give (only install Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable) doesn´t work for me. I have VS2017 and I've installed Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable, I´m kinda new doing this so I donn´t know what I´m missing.
Thanks
a pleasure to greet you, an hour ago I had the same problem, the only thing I did was download both versions (both the 32-bit and the 64-bit version) and the first thing I did was install the 64-bit version of normal way, downloading from the official page, but I installed the 32-bit version from Command Prompt with the following code:
CD: [path]/AccessDataEngine.exe /passive
in this way I managed to solve that error
I am trying to get a connection to work on my machine to an AS400 database as per this link.
I have confirmed that there is no firewall blocking the machine I am working on. I have confirmed that the connection info works on a different machine with a .UDL file. I have installed the requisite C++ runtime libraries onto the machine and confirmed it has the appropriate .NET framework (it has 4.7.2). When I try to run the UDL file with the same connection information, I get "Provider cannot be found. Ensure that the provider has been installed properly." As far as I can tell I did, but it is not detecting that?
Can someone help me understand how to get it set up so that the UDL file will indicate if the connection was successful or not? I'm not really sure what is at issue at this point.
edit: I got lucky on more searching and so on further inspection, I can see that it is not in the registry editor. Could that be the issue? How would I add it there properly so that it shows up as a Data Link so that I can configure it correctly?
go here to download and install access client solutions
after installing the base package, navigate in the install folder and find the Windows_Application folder. In that folder, double click on install_acs_64.js. That will install the ODBC drivers.
run the ODBC Data Source Adminstrator app on the windows PC. Click the Add button. Select the IBM i Access ODBC Driver. Make sure to click the Server tab and set the default schema and library list.
Once the ODBC driver is installed you can test the connection by opening Excel and use the Data tab to config a connection to the IBM i database.
I've just joined a new office and their security is very tight. Essentially, we cannot go online without connecting to another machine. This means any applications that attempt to connect online won't connect to anything.
I'm trying to set up atom for python development (I've not used atom before and it's all that available to me!) - but the lack of internet is causing an issue.
I understand that to install a package, I can download it from github, and extract it to ~/.atom/packages - and this works! But what do I do with packages with dependencies that haven't been downloaded? Is there a simple way to get the package and the dependency whilst being offline?
I've also noticed that although my office has atom installed there's no 'apm' or 'npm' commands in the terminal...is this common?
thanks
Well, I've searched the interwebs like crazy and I am unable to find this driver.
I am trying to convert data from a client's database that was built using the ASA 8.0 engine. ASA 8 has been out of support since 2008. The software company that created this no longer supports it, so can't provide me with the drivers. I've scoured the web and can't find anything.
I managed to get the installation files for this old software called BailCredit built by a company called SentryLink. I found what I presume to be the ODBC driver in the installation files (dbodbc8.dll) and I've tried manually registering that (Windows Server 2008 R2) but didn't get anywhere. When I try to create a new datasource, the ODBC Data Source Administrator gives me an error.
My company has done hundreds of data migrations and this is the first time I've had to resort to this.
I'd post a link to the database file, but simply can't because of privacy.
Please help if you can! Thanks in Advance.

For 64 Bit operating system you need to copy the dll's to %windir%\syswow64\ so you need to change install.cmd to the following code. The rest is the same.
COPY %~dp0dbcon8.dll %windir%\syswow64\dbcon8.dll
COPY %~dp0dblgen8.dll %windir%\syswow64\dblgen8.dll
COPY %~dp0dbodbc8.dll %windir%\syswow64\dbodbc8.dll
regedit %~dp0SAS8.REG
pause
It take's me a few hours to figure it out i hope it help someone else.
This is how I finally solved it.
OPTION 1:
Get a copy of the following files from a computer with a working setup of the SQL Anywhere ODBC driver:
dbodbc8.dll
dbcon8.dll
dblgen8.dll
Create an install.cmd file with this:
COPY %~dp0dbcon8.dll %SystemRoot%\system32\dbcon8.dll
COPY %~dp0dblgen8.dll %SystemRoot%\system32\dblgen8.dll
COPY %~dp0dbodbc8.dll %SystemRoot%\system32\dbodbc8.dll
regedit %~dp0SAS8.REG
pause
Create an SAS8.REG file with this:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INI\Adaptive Server Anywhere 8.0]
"Driver"=hex(2):25,00,57,00,49,00,4e,00,44,00,49,00,52,00,25,00,5c,00,73,00,79,\
00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,64,00,62,00,6f,00,64,00,62,00,\
63,00,38,00,2e,00,64,00,6c,00,6c,00,00,00
"Setup"=hex(2):25,00,57,00,49,00,4e,00,44,00,49,00,52,00,25,00,5c,00,73,00,79,\
00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,33,00,32,00,5c,00,64,00,62,00,6f,00,64,00,62,00,\
63,00,38,00,2e,00,64,00,6c,00,6c,00,00,00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INI\ODBC Drivers]
"Adaptive Server Anywhere 8.0"="Installed"
Run install.cmd
This will work when Windows is installed in C:\WINDOWS, otherwise edit the registry entries.
OPTION 2:
If someone left a copy of the Powerbuilder CD in the client's computer, look for the folder asa801runtime and install that to get the ODBC driver working
EDIT:
Example connection string with default username/password:
Driver={Adaptive Server Anywhere 8.0};UID=dba;PWD=sql;DatabaseName=base;EngineName=gestion;CommLinks=TCPIP(HOST=GRA06:2638)
Answering my own question:
I wasn't able to find this commercially available anywhere. I happened to be able to get my hands on the installation for the software package that was using SQLAnywhere 8. By installing this, it installed the necessary drivers (but only worked on 32-bit OS).
