Connect to SQL Anywhere

How do i connect to sql anywhere? Is a ODBC required?

I found an old thread from 2018 but my software does not look like that. In the help section there is a mention about “Other SQL” but i cant find this option.

Hi Terje,

you have the following options in the connectors for SQL:


Either you can use one of the database connectors shown above out of the box or you have to get access by ODBC and then you need to install an ODBC driver.

Kind regards,

Hi,

You’ll firstly need the SQL Anywhere 64-bit ODBC driver installed on the same machine as EasyMorph.

Then you need to create a system DSN for the database. In Windows search for the “ODBC Data Source Administrator (64-bit)” utility and add it n the “System DSN” tab, configuring the details for the database including the address, username and password (if needed).

Then back in EasyMorph, add a connector and select “SQL” → “ODBC”. You should be able to choose the System DSN entry you created.
