[Solved] Test ODBC Connection: SERVER_PROP empty Success !

Hi !

I use "Test ODBC Connection" (http://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-g ... ction.html)

On a machine with an MS-SQL with the same instance name of SQL as the hostname (which is often the case) the test always succeeded when the field SERVER_PROP is empty !

It's strange but it's fun :)

Good day

Re: [FunnyBug] Test ODBC Connection: SERVER_PROP empty Success !

Hi,

This seems to be allowed by the ODBC driver (perhaps a bug). If you want to prevent the user from testing without specifying the server you can make sure that the field is not empty before the test starts. The User Guide contains the Make sure an edit box is not empty how-to which may help you.
