ODBC Connection Strings
It also possible to use ODBC connection strings for both Reader and Writer connections.
For example for MS SQL Server connection string is: Driver={SQL Native Client}; Server=myServerAddress;Database=myDataBase;Uid=myUsername;Pwd=myPassword;
One of the major benefits of using connection strings that it makes it no longer necessary to create ODBC Dsn’s manually on every single computer where Advanced ETL Processor is installed. It also gives a greater control over the connection parameters.
More information about connection strings can be found at: https://www.connectionstrings.com
The simplest way to create ODBC connection string is to use ODBC Connection builder dialogue. Double click on ODBC driver name to create a connection string.
