How to Create an ODBC trace file

Description

The ODBC trace is available from the ODBC configuration dialog.

  1. Go to the Windows Control Panel:

    Go To Windows Control Panel
  2. Select Administrative Tools:

    Windows Control Panel
  3. On the Administrative Tools page select Data Sources (ODBC)

    Administrative Tools
  4. Select the tab labeled Tracing:

    Odbcdata Source Administrator
  5. Specify a Log File Path and click Start Tracing Now.

  6. Run Alpha Anywhere and perform the test or execute the script you want to trace. It helps if you keep the test as simple as possible to minimize the size of the trace file.
