Macro connection string to write to database

Hi there,

i hope you can help me:

i had written a new macro to write test-data to a database:

Public Sub WriteSQL

    dim sConn, oConn

    Set oConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

   

    oConn.Open "Provider=MSDASQL.1;Data source=QLIKVIEW_DATA:44444;Catalog=QLIKVIEW_SERVICE;User Id=ABC;Password=CDE;"

    sSQL="INSERT INTO dba.qlikview_test (pkid,Testfeld) VALUES (null,'Testwert')"

    oConn.Execute(sSQL)

    oConn.Close

    Set oConn = Nothing

   

end sub

We are using Sybase Central 6 and  SQL Anywhere 12.

When i test the macro, i get always the information: the provider is not known.

Anybody an idea how to set the connecting string?

Thanks and regards,

Sabrina

the provider is not known.

Then either you didn't install the correct driver or you're using the wrong provider name. If you're using a 64-bit OS you also need a 64-bit OLEDB driver.

Yes we are using a 64bit OS, where QV and sybase are running.

Where can i find the 64bit driver to install?

Thanks and regards
