Hi - I'm a newbie to the RexxSQL world. I just installed RexxSQL and I'm getting an error trying to connect to my MySQL database running Simple.cmd. I am running it using the command: rexxsql simple.cmd user=Jim pass=xxxxx data=test. and receiving the error: Program failed: connecting
REXX/SQL-1: Database Error
(IM002) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified.

I have set up my path parameter as follows: PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\iCLS\;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\iCLS\;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\WINDOWS\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files\Calibre2\;D:\Applications\Regina;C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA NvDLISR;d:\applications\Cobol.4.7.6\GnuCOBOL\bin;C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Shell 8.0\bin\;C:\Users\Jim\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;d:\applications\Nmap;d:\applications\Rexx;

I currently have the rexxsql dll's and executables in the same directory as my rexx executables - I tried a different folder, but received the same error.

I must be missing something here. I would appreciate any help in resolving this issue. As I said, I'm new to integrating SQL into my rexx programs. Thanks again. Jim
