I recently got a new computer and I had to set up a new ODBC connection to SQL server so I can do sql queries in SAS.  The ODBC connection has been configured, tested and is working. However, I am getting the following message every time I try a program.

 

ERROR: The TXEVER engine cannot be found.
ERROR: A Connection to the TxEVER DBMS is not currently supported, or is not installed at your site.

 

I haven't changed anything in the query or connection string (see below).  Any suggestions?

 

 

%let username = vfarinelli514 ;
%let passwrd = XXXXXXX ;


proc sql ;
connect to odbc as TxEVER (datasrc=TxEVER user=&username password= &passwrd );
create table work.testtable as
select * from connection to TxEVER
(Select * from [database]); 

quit;

Have you set up the TxEVER data source in the Windows ODBC administrator? 

 

Note if you are using 64-bit SAS then a 64-bit ODBC driver and data source needs to be defined. Alternatively you define a DSN-less connection in SAS pointing at the ODBC driver you want to use.

I was just going to come back on here and update the this post.  My laptop crashed once I rebooted everything worked fine, even though I did a cold reboot already. Thanks!
