looks good, you’re missing username/password but i don’t think that’s it. Have you tried going into the Windows ODBC Manager and creating a DSN and testing the DB connection?

Sir,ma’am,

I am writing an application in vb2010 Visual basic express and am having issue with the data base connection for Postgres. I have installed the driver but haven’t been able to get the connection to work. Please advise.

Imports System.Data.Odbc

Dim MyCon As New Odbc.OdbcConnection
MyCon.ConnectionString = "Driver={PostgreSQL ANSI};database=fgsms_performance;server=127.0.0.1;port=5432;"
MyCon.Open()

ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

Respectfully,
William Hoffmann
