Hi,

You can import one ODBC datasource configuration at a time, but you may need to make some modifications on the parameters.
For example, if you have a SQL server datasource then you have to remove all authentication related attributes.

If you encounter any problems please let me know!

We have 2 databases. A demo database filled with test data. And a real database for the customers to put their life data in. for both databases i want to make a ODBC datasource on the destination machine. As i undertand it now , this can not be done with ODBC datasource import ?

Hi,

You can create a ODBC data source on the target machine by using "New Data Source" button in the "ODBC" page.
