The key to my frustrations was I did not have SQL 2008 Service Pack 1 installed. I had a lot of trouble with this one, but I finally got it to work a few months ago. Another note (really not sure if this matters and don’t have the time to reinstall right now) is that I have SQL 2008 installed in 32bit mode so if this does not work for you, you might want to look into that. So the problem is that the server is 64bit, but progress’ driver is 32bit. My setup is a Windows 2003 Standard Edition 64bit server, with Progress Openedge 10.2A installed, and from what I’ve read is that they don’t have a 64bit driver. I will not take responsibility for any problems that you may have with your SQL database At the very least test it thoroughly before trying. Disclaimer: this should only be tried on a non production server as it involves modifying the registry.
