Is ODBC 9i driver backward compatible?

Hi,
We are using Oracle 8i, but I was wondering if I can use the 9i ODBC driver? Is it backward compatible?
Thanks,
Jeff

As long as you have an Oracle 9i client installed, you should be using the 9i ODBC driver. If you have an 8i client, you should be using the 8i ODBC driver.
The 9i driver will have no problem connecting to an Oracle 8 or 8i database. I have heard the some people have had difficulty when connecting to an Oracle 7 database, but I've never tried that.

  • Thunderbolt/Firewire adapter backwards compatible?

    So I just bought a new 4TB G-Raid w/ Thunderbolt. Additionally, I bought a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter, so I can connect my Firewire 800 equipped mac to the hard drive. IT DOESN'T WORK . I've read that they only work with a Thunderbolt equipped mac, to a female fw 800 cable. However, the deeper I've dug, I've heard that they are indeed backwards compatible (specifically with the G-tech drives), or that there can be software drivers that can make them backwards compatible. Anyone have any ideas??
    Speccs: 2010 mbp 17 inch. 2.53 ghz i5. 8gb RAM.

    Yes, I know that my mbp doesn't have a TB port, but I was hoping that the adapter would solve this problem, as it would change the connectivity to FW 800. I realize that is bottlenecking it, but I didn't have much choice because of the harddrive I had to buy. As for the eSata connections, I've never used that method. So I guess I wouldn't really know where to begin in considering that. However, the current drive I have now is:

    Thank you for your help! If all else fails, I'm just going to have to travel a bit further to buy a 4tb drive with FW, and return the one I just bought. Hopefully that's not the case....:/

  • When will USB 3.0 be truly backwards compatible with USB 2.0 audio interfaces?

    hello
    I own a U46DJ mkII audio interface.  I use the interface for music production, particularly recording vocals.
    The device performs well on my windows laptop, I can record clean vocals with no artifacts. On the macbook pro however, the incoming audio signal is full of digital pops and clicks.
    After spending a few days searching for solutions on google I narrowed it down to the USB 3.0 ports on the new macbook pro.
    Lots of people with with all different brands of audio interface are experiencing problems while connecting them to USB 3.0 ports.
    Here is an article on the topic: http://createdigitalmusic.com/2012/06/usb-3-0-backwards-compatible-in-theory-but -some-audio-drivers-arent-cooperating/
    So, when will USB 3 be truly backwards compatible with our USB 2 devices?

    Tuesday. That's what I heard.
    Perhaps the driver is the problem. Check with the interface manufacturer.
    I have a Focusrite USB interface that sounds great but Pro Tools and Logic kept crashing when I used it.  I went back and forth with Focusrite, they had several beta drivers which they sent me, none of which fixed the problem. Turns out the interface works better without the driver from the manufacturer.
    I find it hard to blame Apple for this. It's not like they didn't have the ML beta out for a long time for all the device manufacturers to test their drivers and their hardware with. Apple can't keep tabs on every third party developer on the planet and design their software and hardware to keep all of them happy.
    If you want to give Apple some feedback you can do it here: Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback

  • The Bluetooth low energy protocol is not backward compatible with classic Bluetooth protocol. My iPhone 4s can not find my sonny in-dash player. However my iPhone 3GS does it. Very disappointed with this. Any idea how it can be fixed???

    The Bluetooth low energy protocol is not backward compatible with classic Bluetooth protocol.
    My iPhone 4s can not find my sonny in-dash player. However my iPhone 3GS does it. Very disappointed with this.
    Any idea how it can be fixed??????

    Hello,
    You are correct, Blue tooth low engergy, BTLE.(only) devices are not backward compatible with Classic bluetooth and cannot connect.
    However the Apple 4S and above have Bluetooth 4.0 support.. Hardware wise it has bothClassic Bluetooth, like the 3GS, as well as Bluetooth Low Energy.  There is no good reason why your 4s cannot communicate to your Sony in-dash player using the Classic bluetooth that resides in the 4S.
    I know that this does not answer the why it does not work, but it should work. Do you have to somehow re-pair the new phone up to the player?  Not  knowing the model of the Sony it is hard to investigate.
    And I hate to ask but are you sure that the Bluetooth radio is on in the phone?

  • MS Access and ODBC 80510 driver

    When I import tables into my Access database the queries work fine however when I link to the tables using Oracle
    ODBC 80510 driver the following selection criteria command does not work. [Forms]![Get Jobs By contact No form]![Combo2], if I use a literal value like "abc" it works. It appears that Oracle running the server does not understand the command, therefore no records are selected.
    Can any one help?
    Thanks, John

    You need to create an ODBC data source to your Oracle 8 database,
    and test it. Then in Access, use the get external data option
    under the file menu. Select ODBC data sources, and pick the data
    source you created in step 1. After you login, you should see
    all the tables in your Oracle schema. You should use Oracle to
    create the tables in Oracle, access will do it, but it will allow
    lower case and spaces, and Oracle doesn't like that.

  • XCelsius 2008 is not backward compatible with ver 4.5

    Post Author: Joseph
    CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
    I tried opening a project that was done with ver 4.5 but it just said that "Crystal Xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or may have features that cannot be supported by this version of Crystal Xcelsius." So i guess I probably have to recreate the project in the 2008 version to take advantage of the new features available. So I imported the excel datasheet used in the old project to a new project in Xcelsius 2008 and tried recreating the objects from scratch. I had started with an accordion menu and two list boxes and then I decided to export to swf to test. However, the result was disappointing. I could only see the two list boxes but not the accordion menu. There was a message saying "Initializing..." that stayed. Does this mean I have to recreate the excel data from scratch as well?

    X2008 is backward compatible with CX4.5.  But Jim is correct. There is a bug in X2008 which prevents it from opening some 4.5 models by double-clicking on the filename.  They can be opened from the File > Open menu.  This only affects opening the model.Due to the many changes between CX4.5 and X2008, the migration of old CX4.5 models is not clean.  Differences will be seen.  Most are cosmetic affecting only the look of the model.  But some tidy up, color changes and re-alignment work must be done.   There was no way to gain the benefits of X2008 and still keep CX4.5 models unchanged.Andy  

  • Update ODBC Access driver Problem??

    I am trying to update fields in a tab pane.I already have add and delete functions working but on Trying upate I get a Microsoft Driver Exception Notice [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Driver].Why ??
    Here some code:
    final static String driver = "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver";
    final static String url = "jdbc:odbc:addBKTAFE";
    final static String table2 = "Address";
    String sql = ""; // Used to store sql statements
    int pane_number = 0; // Used to indicate what screen needs to be processed
    //--------------------Start updateRecord()-------------------------------------->>>
    // Update personnel details.
    void updateRecord() {
    try {
    // load MS Access driver
    Class.forName(driver);
    // Setup connection to DBMS
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url);
    // Create statement
    Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
    sql = "UPDATE"+
    table2 +
    "SET "+
    "FirstName ='" + tfFirstName2.getText() + "'," +
    "LastName ='" + tfLastName2.getText() + "'," +
    "Address ='" + tfAddress2.getText() + "'," +
    "City ='" + tfCity2.getText() + "'," +
    "State ='" + tfState2.getText() + "'," +
    "Postcode='" + tfPostcode2.getText() + "'," +
    "Country ='" + tfCountry2.getText() + "'," +
    "EmailAddress='" + tfEmailAddress2.getText() + "'," +
    "HomePhone='" + tfHomeNumber2.getText() + "'," +
    "FaxNumber ='" + tfFaxNumber2.getText() + "'," +
    "WHERE person_id =" + cbPersonId2.getSelectedItem().toString();
    stmt.executeUpdate(sql);
    conn.close();
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, recupdated,
    information,
    JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
    } catch (Exception ex) {
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,
    ex.getMessage() + ex.toString(),
    genexception,
    JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
    //--------------------End updateRecord()---------------------------------------->>>

    I would suggest the following put in
    System.out.println(sql);
    right after the creation of the statement to look at it when it is complete.
    It is hard to see any other errors the way it appears in the forum.
    You can then copy it and try it exactly the way it is in assess and see if it
    works there.
    This may help find the problem.
    You can put in the following statement to see the sql logging.
    Note I have never tried it - it may show you the problem.
    java.sql.DriverManager.setLogStream(java.lang.System.out);
    Two other things - as I do not use access the comma is not
    standard in SQL.
    - what is in the fEmailAddress2 - is there any special
    characters that may be causing a problem - try i
    with blank field.

  • Satellite A200-195: What CD/DVD drive is compatible?

    Hey Guys and gals,
    I have had a look and asked Toshiba but no answer given so thought I would ask the experts here.
    My DVD RW in my laptop TS L632D Has died and I need a new one.
    So what one can I buy and fit without problems.
    These drives are known to have issues with conflicts etc... so a different drive would be better.
    So what do you guys and gals suggest.
    Cheers,
    Chris

    Hi
    Thank you very much that you are seeing us as experts :)
    We all here are Toshiba notebook users and as you probably dont know this is a user-to-user forum. :) so maybe not really experts ;)
    To be honest its not known to me that this CD/DVD drive causes issue.
    As you probably dont know every CD/DVD drive doesnt support all possible CDs or DVDs from different manufacturers.
    Some CDs and DVDs are more compatible and some CDs or DVDs are not fully compatible.
    However, the point is that you need a new CD/DVD drive.
    I checked the A200 user manual (can be downloaded from the Toshiba page) and there is a list with some compatible drives.
    Check the user manual page 6 and 7
    You can also call the ASP in your country. The guys known what CD/DVD drives are compatible with your notebook!

  • How can I save Illustrator CC files onto my external hard drive - Free Agent Go Flex Drive? Nothing works, can't even drag files over. Is the drive not compatible?

    Nothing seems to work, not even dragging files over. Is the drive not compatible? Am working on a new Mac Book, its not a problem on my older IMAC?

    There are two scenarios in which GoFlex drives are supported for use with a Mac. When you connect a GoFlex drive to a Mac, you will be presented with a utility to configure the drive for use. First, if you want to use your GoFlex drive solely with a Mac, the utility will reformat the drive into the HFS+ format, which allows you to use the drive with Time Machine or the included Memeo Premium backup software for Mac. If you would like to be able to "shuttle" data back and forth between a Mac and a PC, a special driver needs to be installed onto the Mac that allows it to access a Windows-formatted drive (i.e. NTFS). Time Machine will not work in this case, nor will Memeo Premium software for Mac. However, if you want your GoFlex solution to also work with TimeMachine, the drive will need to be reformatted to HFS+ journaled.

  • How can I determine what internal DVD drives are compatible w/ my G5?

    I'd like to put a new DVD drive in my G5. It's one of the original 1.8 dual machines, with some extra RAM. I'm having trouble with the drive these days, and I'd like to figure out what drives are compatible. Thoughts?

    I cannot speak for all drives but today I installed a Pioneer 710 ( same drive as 111 ) in place of the original Pioneer 106.
    I have only tested it with Toast to burn a DVD-R and playing a CD and all is well.

    Dear experts,
    I'm trying to create an universe linked to an Excel File.

  • Satellite 320CDT: What drive is compatible?

    Hi all,
    I know it's old but I have a Toshiba 320CDT that has a knackered CD-ROM Drive (other than that it is very good)
    The one fitted is a TEAC CD-220EA-32 (20X)
    Can anyone tell me if a TEAC 224E P/N 1977047A-30 will fit as a replacement. This is 24X drive.
    Many Thanks
    Shane

    Hi
    Youre right, its really an oldie and therefore I dont found much information about this unit.
    You know surely that not every internal drive is compatible because of the drive settings.
    There are three possibilities: maser, salve and c-sel.
    Unfortunately but its not known to me what settings the Satellite 320CDT uses.
    But I think you should check the settings of the TEAC CD-220EA-32 (20X). Then you should know what settings the next drive must support.
    In other way you can contact the Toshiba service partner in your country and ask the guys for the compatible drive.

  • Is The iPod Touch Backward Compatible With USB 1.1 Connections?

    Hi. I intend to get the iPod Touch soon. But, before I make the leap, I'd like to know whether the iPod Touch is backward compatible with my older USB 1.1 connections. Any help will be appreciated here. Thank you.

    Hello Castlegard,
    As mentioned, the Minimum System Requirements for the iPod Touch does specify USB 2.0, see the requirements here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1323
    While it is theoretically possible to sync over a USB 1.1 connection, your mileage may vary. Consider that USB 1.1 has a transfer rate of 12Mbit/sec, where USB 2.0 is 480Mbit/sec, so USB 2.0 is basically 40x faster. Transferring small files may succeed, but when you try to get iTunes to update or restore an iPod Touch, it will be trying to push a 300MB file (approximately) through a 12Mbit pipe. Trying to do updates or restore via USB 1.1 will often result in iTunes timing out before the process is complete.
    If I were to try to sync a 1.5GB movie over a USB 1.1 connection, I could probably go to downtown Sydney and have a nice dinner and attend a concert at the Sydney Opera House and still get back before the sync was complete. BTW, I live in California...
    If your computer is a desktop tower, upgrading to USB 2.0 is a relatively inexpensive proposition. If you are not a handy person with a phillips screwdriver or electical devices, most computer dealers or resellers will install for a nominal fee.

    Hi Rajagopal,
    Thanks for your reply after doing some further investigations this morning I found and corrected the problem...
    The DataDirect Driver does not like double quotes in the query for some reason, testing  using the BI Answers generated SQL with the nqcmd tool below...
    With double quotes “” it fails immediately
    Give SQL Statement: select T18706."Id" as c1, T18706."UserName" as c2 from "ETMS_Users" T18706 where ( T18706."UserName" = 'trowe' )
    select T18706."Id" as c1, T18706."UserName" as c2 from "ETMS_Users" T18706 where ( T18706."UserName" = 'trowe' )
    [102][State: S1000] [DataDirect][ODBC SQL Server Wire Protocol driver][Microsoft SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near 'Id'.
    Statement execute failed
    With double quotes removed for just the columns I now get the Error near ‘ETMS_Users’ which still had the double quotes
    Give SQL Statement: select T18706.Id as c1, T18706.UserName as c2 from "ETMS_Users" T18706 where ( T18706.UserName = 'trowe' )
    select T18706.Id as c1, T18706.UserName as c2 from "ETMS_Users" T18706 where ( T18706.UserName = 'trowe' )
    [102][State: S1000] [DataDirect][ODBC SQL Server Wire Protocol driver][Microsoft SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near 'ETMS_Users'.
    Statement execute failed
    With all double quotes removed it works !
    Give SQL Statement: select T18706.Id as c1, T18706.UserName as c2 from ETMS_Users T18706 where ( T18706.UserName = 'trowe' )
    select T18706.Id as c1, T18706.UserName as c2 from ETMS_Users T18706 where ( T18706.UserName = 'trowe' )
    c1           c2
    42499        trowe
    Row count: 1
    Give SQL Statement:
    The solution to fix the problem is...
    In the BI Admin Tool Physical Layer Database, Properties Features tab is to delete the double quote in the Value column for IDENTIFIER_QUOTE_CHAR, setting this in the DBFeatures.INI file does not resolve the problem possibly it did in earlier versions of the product.
