ODBC Driver Manager Errors

The ODBC driver manager error format and its solution.

The driver manager is a DLL that establishes connections with drivers, submits requests to drivers, and returns results to applications. An error that occurs in the driver manager has this format:

[vendor] [ODBC XXX] message
where:
  • vendor is the name of the ODBC vendor.

  • ODBC XXX is the driver manager and its version number.

  • message is the content of the error message.

For example, an error from the Microsoft driver manager looks similar to:
[Microsoft] [ODBC Driver Manager] Driver does not support this function.

If you receive this type of error, see the Programmers Reference for the Microsoft ODBC Software Development Kit, available from Microsoft.
