Migrating to ASE OLE DB Provider by Sybase

To migrate OLE DB applications to use the ASE OLE DB Provider by Sybase, you must edit the connection string used by OLE DB client applications. The provider short name for the ASE OLE DB Provider by Sybase is “ASEOLEDB.”

Known differences in behavior between the OLE DB Driver Kit and ASE OLE DB Provider by Sybase are documented in the SDK 12.5.1 Release Bulletin for your platform.

NoteThe connection string syntax for ASE OLE DB Provider by Sybase is documented in the Adaptive Server Enterprise OLE DB Provider by Sybase User’s Guide for Microsoft Windows.

The connection string syntax differs from the syntax for the OLE DB Driver Kit. The OLE DB Provider by Sybase honors the OLE DB Driver Kit syntax, but Sybase recommends that you migrate your connection string syntax to the new syntax when possible.
