Accessing Zen/PSQL Data from ODBC Or Other Applications
Accessing Zen/PSQL Data From ODBC Or Other Applications A White Paper From For more information, see our web site at http://www.goldstarsoftware.com Accessing Zen/PSQL Data From ODBC (or Other Applications) Last Updated: 02/23/2021 When it comes to "frequently asked questions", this one takes the cake, to be sure. It seems that people are used to databases which provide ODBC access natively (such as FOXPro, Access, etc.) and get confused when they cannot access their own application data immediately. Then, they start “Btrieve-bashing” because they can't get their data out. This document was created to provide some explanation as to what the issues are when it comes to ODBC access and your data, whether it be stored in a current Actian Zen database engine, or one of the older ones, including Actian PSQL, Pervasive PSQL, Pervasive.SQL, and even Btrieve. The material is taken mostly from the PSQL Service & Support classes provided by Goldstar Software. Database Engine Type & ODBC Drivers The first question we have to deal with is the availability of ODBC drivers. If you have a newer engine, then you can skip this section entirely. If you have an older engine, though, then you should read on. Old DOS applications may be using Btrieve 5.x or older for DOS, 5.x for Windows, or even Btrieve 5.x or 6.10 for NetWare. These engines do NOT contain an ODBC driver and will not support 32-bit ODBC access. (MS Access 2.0 had limited support for Btrieve 6.10, but only from 16-bit Windows applications.) If this is the case, then you will need to purchase a new database engine to support this access. -

Determining Your Pervasive, Actian, PSQL Or Btrieve Engine Version
Determining Your PSQL Engine Version A White Paper From For more information, see our web site at http://www.goldstarsoftware.com Determining Your PSQL Engine Version Last Updated: 12/18/2018 It is very common for people to know that they are using the Btrieve or Pervasive PSQL, or Actian Zen database engine, but to not know exactly which version they are using. Moreover, the list of related files is often a mystery, especially for older versions, and some users are simply without a clue as to what modules are part of the database and what are not. This paper was created so that someone could locate the PSQL-related files on their workstation or server and determine the exact version, including user count, where appropriate. NetWare Server Engines With NetWare servers, it is possible to have any version of Btrieve from 5.x all the way through Pervasive PSQL v9. Many users see the version reported from BREQUEST and assume that this is their Btrieve version -- it just isn't so! You must query the server to determine exactly which version of BTRIEVE.NLM you have. On older versions of NetWare, you can do this with the "MODULES" command, which lists all the loaded modules on the server. Then, watch for the BTRIEVE.NLM to scroll by. For NetWare 4.11 and above, you can use the command "MODULES BTR*" to list only those modules that start with "BTR", which will save some searching. With the release of Pervasive.SQL 7, Pervasive Software started including the SQL engine "in the box" with the Btrieve engine.
