fjalves Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Hi, I'm a SIMIO user, and i have one problem with bind. When i try to use bind with odbc connector, to connect with an MySql database, but all fields appear blocked. Anyone can help me?? Why all fields appear blocked?? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtwirth Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 We just noticed this. We will fix this in a future build. As a work around, open the Database Binding Screen. Once opened, specify "SQL Server" as the database type and then select the "Custom connection string" option. Once this option is checked, select "ODBC". Now you should be able to enter a custom connect string to your MySql database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfranklin Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Seems like this issue is still not addressed. Using the workaround suggested to get to the Connection String works fine, but for password protected access and security reasons we would not want to enter the password in this connection string. The file option would be preferred but it's selection box is not active. Can you please fix this ODBC connection type or advise on alternate approach? Thanks, Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
