Hello All,
I'm a software developer and the program I have developed has been carried around for the last ~7 years.
At the moment it mainly runs on SQL2005 using the DB-Library driver (the one from SQL Server 7.0).
I'm not sure this is the right place but to ask, but during my attempts to work with DB-Library and SQL 2008 I've noticed it won't "play nice" anymore.
While it works well on the system and I can connect to remote SQL 2005 servers, it simply timeouts on lovsl SQL 2008.
Anyone had any experience with those issues? maybe a workaround\upgrade is somewhere out there?
My NTWDBLIB.DLL version is 2000.80.194.
My platform is C \ Win2003 x64 \ SQL 2008 Standard.
Any help would be highly appreciated (I'd rather not rewrite every line of code to ODBC instead of DB-Library).
Thank you for your time!
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
Is SQL 2008 configured in SQL 2000 compatibility mode?
Think you'll find you will need it configured with this setting for this dll to work
Cheers

It might be because you're on a 64-bit system and it's a 32-bit DLL--don't have any direct experience with the DLL in question, though. Although, haven't Microsoft said that support for DB-Library will be dropped soon? They said they were going to do it with SQL 2008 R2, but I think they've reversed that decision now.
