SUMMARYThis article discusses what is included in the Microsoft Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) version 2.5 components and how to get them.
MORE INFORMATIONODBC version 2.5 has some very useful additional features over ODBC version 2.10. These include system level data sources, capability to uninstall installed ODBC components, and new and modified installer functions. Version 2.5 is supported on Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows NT versions 3.5 and 3.51. ODBC version 2.5 does not contain any 16-bit components and will not be supported on RISC platforms. You should use ODBC version 2.10 in these cases. ODBC version 2.5 contains the following components:

It is not included in the ODBC version 2.5 file list, so it should be retained from the ODBC version 2.10 SDK. Note that on Windows 95, a 32-bit multithreaded driver will not work when a 16-bit application tries to use it. A 32-bit multithreaded driver will work, on the other hand, with a 32-bit application. The restriction on 16-bit applications occurs because Windows 95 does not support multiple threads within a 16-bit process space. ODBC 2.50 components can be obtained from the following sources:
