Hi,

Currently I am using a data adapter for MS SQL Server 2000 on MRE (v7.6.4). We are currently upgrading to a new version of SQL Server (2008), but I couldn't find it on the new adapters page.

Does anyone know if this is available for the new version of SQL Server (2005 or 2008)?

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Jimmy Pang

Jimmy,

in 7.6.10 there is an adapter for 2005 available. In 7.7 there is also support for 2008.

7.6.9 has 2005.

Techsupport will have a list of adapters for 7.6.4

Jimmy,
If you already have an adapetr configured for MS SQL, you can only add or configure connections using that adapter. You can't add another MS SQL adapter, not even for a newer version of MS SQL.
You'll have to remove the existing MS SQL adapter. Only then you can change from MS SQL 2000 to MS SQL 2005/8.

If you want a second adapter, you can always create a second configuration of the server, and point it to the new version.

I see, thanks for your replies everyone.
Looks like my current version of WebFOCUS doesn't have an adapter for the newer SQL server.

Thanks all.
