Progress 9.1B on SCO Unix and ODBC

Normally the ODBC driver runs on the client machine. I assume your DB is on SCO, where is your client?
Progress v9 comes with an ODBC driver that is installed on each client that you install the Progess client.
This driver is from DataDirect (in Windows, look in the ODBC Administrator to see if there is a Progress driver ther from DataDirect). This driver is for a SQL92 connection to Progress. You need to have a SLQ92 login broker running to connect using this driver. See your progress documentation.
If this doesn't help look at OpenLink ( They have many drivers for many databases. For progress they have both Single Tier (client only with Progress client) and Multi Tier (server and client componets, no Progress client necessary) drivers for Progress SQL92 and SQL89(4gl) connections. SQL89-4gl connections do not need an extra login broker running, but you don't get the advantages of SQL92 standard either.
Hope this helps
