From: Kevin on 31 May 2010 07:35 One other question. Is there a way of turning off the sounds used by SQL Master, without turning off the speakers? As I cannot create a connection I cannot see if there is a setting there.

If your server instance accepts Windows Authentication then you MUST NOT supply a user name but if it allows mixed mode then you must supply a user name and password AND TICK the box to remember it. > 6. Select the Initial Catalog, for example Kevin. Now, ignoring all the above, if you have a successful connection you can drop the arrow down and it will show you all the databases to which you have access.

Yep - the provider. PLEASE READ MY HELP FILE. Cheers, Geoff
From: Geoff Schaller on 31 May 2010 19:57 Yes - go to its CFG file and set DisableSounds=YES You can also set DisableAllSounds=YES if that doesn't stop enough of them. The config file will be located at: C:\Users\GSchaller\AppData\Roaming\SQLMaster (in Vista or W7 - or the equivalent location otherwise) Geoff "Kevin" <kdmurphy(a)eircom.net> wrote in message news:L9NMn.98$K4.112(a)news.indigo.ie: > One other question. > > Is there a way of turning off the sounds used by SQL Master, without > turning off the speakers?

From: Kevin on 1 Jun 2010 04:07 Geoff, Thanks for your replies. I was using the wrong driver as you suggested. As I could connect using the VO2ADO sample with the User DSN I had created I thought it would work the same way in SQL Master using the same selections. Selecting the OLEDB provider solved the problem. You mention at the end of your reply to read the help. I would if I could find it. Selecting Contents on the Help menu gives nothing. Selecting Index expands/collapses the selected branch, if appropriate, in the left hand side. I cannot find any help file in the program files folder or the Roaming folder you mentioned in your reply to my other post. The build info, from Help \ About is: Version 2.2.3 Build 0 Build Date: 30/06/2009 Running the Update utility reports no new version and I downloaded this yesterday.

From: Geoff Schaller on 1 Jun 2010 04:54 Maybe it wasn't in that install. http://www.softwareobjectives.com.au/downloads/sqlmaster/sqlmaster.chm For some reason my downloads page on the website has taken a siesta...
