Hi,
how can I check actully used driver version from within an application?
I develop an application and I'd like to know I can read out the odbc
version to write into a log in case of errors.
Is there something like "SELECT ODBCVersion()"?
Probaply not.
How could I do it then?
Client application is MS Access on Windows XP.

Hi Andreas,
ODBC is a client side middle-layer interface. You can't determine any
ODBC-related property with SQL query. There are special functions which
client application can call to get info about ODBC driver, such as:
SQLDrivers, SQLGetInfo, etc...
You can start from this reference:
