    Lost sysprogress password

    I've "inherited" a Progress 9.1d server for which I do not have the sysprogress password. This is a problem since I can't connect via ODBC until I have this password to either log on as sysprogress or grant rights to another user for ODBC access. I can log on using another user account and see...

    9.1d > Windows ODBC Issues, Missing Prog. Explorer?

I can see the tables in the system but when I try to view them I get the "Access Denied (Authorisation Failed)(7512) error. I recall seeing some posts about this so I'll do some searching on...

    9.1d > Windows ODBC Issues, Missing Prog. Explorer?

    I have a Progress 9.1d server running for an application that has about 5 clients on at any given time. I don't know if they are 4GL or SQL clients as I don't know how the application that they use is coded. I would like to access the database via ODBC from another Windows machine on the...
