ODBC Options
The DataServer allows you access to selected options defined in the ODBC interface by providing corresponding options that you can use with the -Dsrv startup parameter. Each Progress-supplied ODBC option has a name of the form option–name and corresponds with a startup option in the ODBC interface having the name SQL_option–name. Table 6–1 lists the Progress-supplied ODBC startup options and the corresponding startup options defined in the ODBC interface.
Refer to any good ODBC application developer’s guide for information on the ODBC-defined options.
When you specify a Progress-supplied ODBC option with the -Dsrv startup parameter, the DataServer sends the option to the ODBC driver for processing by the ODBC interface.
The following example of the -Dsrv startup parameter tells the ODBC driver to return no more than 1,000 rows to the Progress application:
NOTE: The DataServer generally sets the correct value automatically. Therefore, you should reserve use of the ODBC options for troubleshooting and fine-tuning purposes only. See the ODBC Programmer’s Reference for more information on these options.
