Kdb+ How To

Before you can connect to Kdb+ server it is necessary to download and install Kdb+ ODBC driver from: Kdb+ ODBC driver download

After you install ODBC driver there's two different way to configure access.

1. You can created DSN using using ODBC Manager (Access it from SqlDbx main menu: Tools->ODBC Administrator) and then use "ODBC" DBMS Type to connect to it

2. In Login dialog select DBMS Type "Kdb+" and in Server combo box enter server and port for KDb+ server, for example: SERVER1:5001. You can omit port number in Server combo box and specify it in Options edit box using following format: PORT=5001


It is also possible to configure SqlDbx to use Kdb+ ODBC driver directly without installing it. In this instance you need to copy qodbc.dll file to the same directory where SqlDbx.exe located or to a subdirectory named "Drivers" and then use the second method described above to connect.
