Hello, I thought I'd relate a few problems we experienced with the new ODBC drivers (version 6.00.00). We use the drivers for an Apparel/Factor Chargeback system using TurboImage. We found a problem when doing updates back to the HP. Here's a synopsis: version 5.57 Very slow when updating and inserting Aborts transactions after 30 to 50 tranaactions version 5.58 Much faster Didn't abort even after 1300 update transactions version 6.00 seems to have reverted to 5.57 behaviour Slower when updating and inserting Aborts transactions after 90 to 130 tranaactions So if you have downloaded the ODBC patches from the response center and are experiencing problems, you may want to get the 5.58 version and give it a try. My customer went from very frustrated to very happy once we found the right combination. Also for anyone who may be interested. When looking for an alternate way to update, we created a routine to package the updates into a job stream, ftp them to the 3000 then stream a job that executes ISQL. I was amazed to find that ISQL inserted hundreds of records in the time it took to insert just one record through ODBC.
