    Creating ODBC Connections on OS X

    <p>Connecting to SQL Server from an OS X computer requires a 3rd party ODBC driver. If you do not already have an ODBC driver that you use then we recommend you look at <a href="http://uda.openlinksw.com/sqlserver-odbc/" target="_blank">OpenLink ODBC drivers for Microsoft SQL Server</a>. OpenLink sells commercial ODBC drivers that work in our tests. Demos are available so you can verify that the drivers work on your system.</p> <p>When connecting to your SQL Server database with the admin tool or ScreenSteps Desktop you will need to connect via a DSN. If you are not familiar with how to create a DSN then follow the instructions in this lesson. These instructions show how to create a new System DSN using the iODBC Data Source Administrator that comes with OpenLink's driver.</p> <p>Note that any computer that tries to connect to ScreenSteps Workgroup will need to have the ODBC driver installed.</p>
