DEAR MUNEER



I AM ALSO BEHIND THIS ODBC DRIVER



THOUGH THE ANSWERS GIVEN IN THIS COLUM IS CORRECT., NO BODY TELLS YOU WHERE EXCATLY YOU WILL GET THE DRIVER., DURING MY LAST 2 MONTHS SEARCH ., MOST DRIVERS AVAILABLE IS NOT FREE

AND GETTING IN TO PRIMAVERA’S RESOURCES IS DIFFICULT IS IF YOU DONT HAVE SOFTWARE LICENSE



OF COURSE EASTWOOD HARRIS WEB SITE A VERY USEUL WITH WHICH

I CONNECTED P3 DATA TO ACCES USING A EVALUATION VERSION DRIVER.



FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME to solve this issue., rohininilayam@yahoo.com

I did test Btrieve 5.0 driver under Win XP and it works well without any particular problem.

Anyhow, speed of direct linking to the records especially for the projects with more than 40,000 records is not very fast but fine.

I use the pervasive ODBC drivers everyday. They take a little setting up, but it’s welll worth doing. I regularly update project spreadsheets/databases wth real time dates from my programmes. It means that all parties at all levels are working on the right tasks at the right time. It also enables me to keep the programme at a summary level whilst not losing sight of the detail. Bear with it. You’ll never look back.

I found a good way for this. Please go to the data direct web-site. WWW.datadirect.com

This has an ODBC driver and after installing it on your PC you can link directly to P3 tables using Datadirect Btrieve 5.0 *.dta.

I have checked that and works fine.

There is an article on my web site, but I have not tried with XP. There is also a lot of more detailed info on the Primavera web site at primavera.com.
