Hello!We have recently started to research and use AcuSQL. We use AcuSQL to export reporting data to a SQL Server for reporting issues. This is meant for a HQ solution, wich will gather data for several companies.
As the use of this is for HQ reporting, we need to open a connection to a central, remote SQL Server. Therefore, we need to connect to a SQL Server that is residing on a remote maching on the same network. Possibly also through the internet.
My question is; how can this be done? Has someone else tried this?
We have tried to put the adress of the computer in front of the servername/instancename. But we cant make it work.
Example:
move "\\\\\\\\" to servername
move "" to userid
move "" to passwd
EXEC SQL CONNECT TO :servername as sqlConn
USER :userid USING :passwd
END-EXEC
I would be very grateful if someone could give me a hint.
Regards Dagl
