AllBase ODBC Setup
Configuring an ALLBASE Data Source

Data Source Name:  A string that identifies this ALLBASE data source configuration in ODBC.INI. Examples include "Accounting" or "ALLBASE-Serv1."

Description:  An optional long description of a data source name. For example, "My Accounting Database" or "ALLBASE Database on Server #1."

Database Name:  The name of the database to which you want to connect by default.

The following settings are optional:

Default User Name:  The default user name used to connect to your ALLBASE database.  This user name is case-sensitive.  A user name is required only if security is enabled on your database.  Your ODBC application may override this value or you may override this value in the Logon dialog box or connection string.

Yield Proc:  A value of 1, 2, or 3 that determines whether you can work in other applications when ALLBASE is busy.  This attribute is useful to users of ODBC applications.  Valid values are:

•	0 (peek and dispatch), which causes the driver to check the Windows message queue and send any messages to the appropriate Windows application.

•	1 (no yielding, the default), which does not let you work in other applications.

•	2 (ALLBASE's yield procedure), which uses ALLBASE's default yield procedure.

•	3 (dispatch via Windows Yield function), which turns control over to the Windows kernel.  The Windows kernel checks the message queue and sends any messages to the appropriate application window.

It is recommended that you use the value 1.

Translate: Displays the Select Translator dialog box to allow you to perform a translation of your data from one character set to another. Choose the INTERSOLV OEM ANSI translator to translate your data from the IBM PC character set to the ANSI character set.
