ODBCConnectionName (Property)

In french: ODBCNomConnexion

Available only with these kinds of connection

What is a query performed on a connection?

A query performed on a connection is a query performed on data files handled via a specific ODBC driver or via a Native Access.

When the connection is created, you have the ability to define:

the connection name
the name of data source
the user name and password
the name of database accessed (if there is more than one).

The report editor allows you to print the data coming from a query performed on a connection. All the parameters of the connection to use can be defined in the report editor or by programming with the WLanguage properties.

..ODBCConnectionName is used to:

Find out the name of the ODBC connection used when printing a report based on a "query performed on a connection".
Specify the name of the ODBC connection used when printing a report based on a "query performed on a connection".

Note: This property must be used in the opening code of report.

Example

// -- Opening code of report
RPT_Report1..ODBCConnectionName = "MyConnection"
RPT_Report1..ODBCSQLCode = "Select * from Products"
RPT_Report1..ODBCUserName = "MOORE"
RPT_Report1..ODBCPassword = "PSW"
