Advanced Settings |
|
|
Allow NULL strings |
To retrieve metadata, not all parameters according to MSDN can accept a null value. If NULL, the driver should return an error. But some 3rd-party tools pass NULL to the parameters. These options should be enabled for compatibility with such tools. |
|
Empty strings as NULL |
|
|
Connection Timeout |
The time (in seconds) to wait for a connection to open before terminating an attempt. The default value is 15. |
|
Min Fetch Rows |

IP Version |
The Internet Protocol Version.
ivIPv4
The default value. Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) is used.
ivIPv6
Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) is used.
ivIPBoth
Either Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) or Version 4 (IPv4) is used.
Note: When the property is set to
ivIPBoth, a connection attempt is made via IPv6 if it is enabled in the operating system. If the connection attempt fails, a new connection attempt is made via IPv4.

|
ODBC Behavior |
Used to set the behavior corresponding to the ODBC specification version that a third-party tool expects. The behavior of ODBC driver can be changed by setting a value for the SQL_ATTR_ODBC_VERSION attribute by calling the SQLSetEnvAttr function. But some third-party tools expect the driver to exhibit ODBC 2.x behavior, but forget to call SQLSetEnvAttr with the specified version or pass an incorrect value there. In this case, the required behavior can be explicitly specified in the Connection String by setting the ODBC Behavior parameter. The possible values are:
|
|
RegionalNumberSettings |
Enables the use of local regional settings when converting numbers to strings. |
|
RegionalDateTimeSettings |
Enables the use of local regional settings when converting dates and times to strings. |
|
String Types |
Sets the string value types returned by the driver as Default, Ansi or Unicode.
The parameter value should be changed if any third-party tool supports only Ansi string types or Unicode ones. |
