As an addendum to my prior post on this thread, I would recommend you use
the 5.1.1.1 or 4.2.2.0 ODBC driver.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.

        Subject:        ODBC access to TSM from VBScript



Has anybody actually had any success in accessing the TSM database from a
VBScript piece of code (running as asp in IIS) on a Win2K machine via the
ODBC connection ?

I have installed the ODBC driver from the TSM 4.2 CD and configured an
ODBC
datasource with a  DSN pointing to the TSM server.

I know the ODBC DSN works because I can use Excel, MSQuery and Lotus
Approach to extract data
from the TSM database without any problems.

But what I will really like is to get it to work from VBScript.
So far I have not been successful in doing that.
All the examples I have found about how to access an ODBC datasource from
VBScript
have ended in miscelaneous errors.

Has anybody done a similar thing from VBScript and how did you do it ?
A few lines of example code would of course be wonderful.

Peter
