Re: Accessing MSDE



Thanks. What I am looking for is Whether I can run an
application (VC++ application) on one m/c on which I
create ODBC connection to the other machine which has MSDE
installed on it. Typical client server scenario where
client and server apps are running on 2 different
machines. Does MSDE support this kind of requirement? If
yes, what do I need to do on the client (and server side)?

TIA,
Niranjan
