Unix

The version number is part of the delivered file name. The supported installation procedures call for creating symbolic links to standard (not version specific) names. For example, the 2.2.7.1 Build 5 version of the ODBC server for HPUX on an Itanium will have the file name "odbcsrvr.exe.22715-ia64-ELF32". There will be a symbolic link to the file from "odbcsrvr.exe". When requested by Minisoft support, please report the complete file name.

Windows

Check the file properties of the driver dll or server exe file. The version tab will contain the information needed.
