um... bump? lol sorry guys, but i really cant find anything on this.
in control panel -> admin tools -> ODBC, under the user DSN tab, if you try to add an entry with super long file path (name+path), it wont add it. looks like the limit is 140 characters, but that's a weird number for the upper limit... can anyone verify this for me, please? thanx lot! |

do some field research and try out path length from something reasonable to until it stops working. And you'll have your number  |
