I successfully allocated a libname to my SQL Server 2014 instance from SAS 9.4M3 on 64-bit Windows 10 using

 

libname sql odbc dsn='SQLServer' user=sas_readonly pw=MyPassword;

 

No joy however as there were no tables upon opening the library.

 

So...I added the SCHEMA='DBO' option.

 

Opening the library again the DataDirect warning displays continuously. Selecting 'OK' does not close it.

OK. Joy. I changed the libname statement to

 

libname sql sqlsvr dsn='SQLServer' user=sas_readonly pw=MyPassword schema='dbo';

 

and no more popup...and I can see my tables. Case closed.
