ODBC .NET Environment Setup
To set up the ODBC .NET environment, you must download and install the .NET framework
SDK, version 3.5 or later from the Microsoft download website: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/
netframework/default.aspx
If you have not already done so, you must download and install Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
or newer from the Microsoft download website: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vs2005/
aa718332.aspx
If you have not already done so, you must download and install HP Neoview ODBC Driver for
Windows from the HP Software Depot at www.software.hp.com (search for “Neoview”). The
installation instructions (README) are available from the same website.
Defining a Client Data Source
After installing the HP Neoview ODBC Driver for Windows, add a client data source using the
Microsoft ODBC Administrator. Also, if the data source is not defined on the HP Neoview server,
define it using HP Neoview DB Admin.
Optimizing the HP Neoview ODBC Driver
To optimize the HP Neoview performance, it is recommended that you set the Fetch Buffer
Size (kbytes) attribute of the client data source to 4096 (Kbytes). You can set the value when
you create the data source or you can modify the value of an existing client data source by using
the Configure option of the Microsoft ODBC Administrator on the data source.
