Does ODBC, OLEDB are DB's?

Here, What you have done earlier is the approach can form in these. So, You need to start from Google to know connection about external data sources. Will you?

If you open the like where i provide last reply. You will get idea the same. Try to get DB's information like

Server Name, Username, Password, DB on the server details to get into work. And use OLEDB to connect and fill all mention above then you will achieve that

For each RDBMS (luckily they're all providing a relational interface) you first have to download an ODBC or OLE DB driver from the respective manufaturer's web site. Then install the drivers. Each DBMS product has it's own driver.

Then proceed as you did with your other DB connections by configuring the OLE DB connection, or defining an ODBC DSN and configuring an ODBC Connection in QlikView.
