[707230]

hello,
if i want to connect for example to an access database
i do it simple like this:
exec SQL
connect to "jdbcdbcriver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};
DBQ=C:\Stage.mdb"
DRIVER "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"
end-exec
exec SQL
set transaction read only
end-exec.
But how can i connect a SQL server database db.mdf?
I am searching for 4 hours..
Please help me

COBOL vendor and version used please.

Regarding the connection string you need to use please look at

for a full set for all DB's. Just pick the correct one and adapt to your needs.

I am using PERCobol.
