With respect to ODBC... There are only as far as I know about three ways to install database drivers: 1. with programs like excel, word, etc., 2. Individually by downloading them or 3. as a basic set that comes with the ODBC install. The fact that these prepackaged with the OS as 'part of' ODBC does not guarentee that they are there. The options... Install ODBC even if you don't plan to use it, hope you can find a download of the specific driver or install a big MS product you inho could have found a better option to replace. lol So yes, ODBC has nothing to do with how we are accessing them, but it does have an indirect influence on what types of files you can access.

With regard to the possible version conflicts.. I have seen a few cases where the driver name was employed as the access point, but only for 1-2 types. I am not sure how it works exactly, but it is version independent. The whole implimentation is imho a major mess compared to installing the correct driver with the program that will use it. lol

I am having similar problems as Linda. I see nothing printed like this:
Quote:

Plugin Calendar installed.
Database 'C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\worlds\calendar.mdb' created.
Table 'todo' created.
Table 'event' created.
Database is: C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\worlds\calendar.mdb
Nothing to do.
No events.
Type 'calendar:help' for help.


I get this message when I try to enter an event: Could not find file 'C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\worlds\calendar.mdb'.
I have updated my DLLs withe the link on your plugins page and have VBscript Version 5.6. Was wondering if you could enlighten me on what to do?

Maybe it has got confused and thinks the database is created already. Sounds like it. Try removing the plugin, then going into the plugins "state" directory (subdirectory under plugins) and removing files with "805364a6309ecdf2b4e366cf" in the name. This will be the state file for the calendar plugin.

Then reinstall the plugin, and it should start again from scratch.

Sorry to say the same thing happens. Hmm. Maybe you could put together a little .zip with the .mdb files I need? I'm at a total lost on what to do. Never had this kinda trouble before from any of your stuff.

Oh yeah, great job on an awesome MU* client. Use to be a diehard Portal fan, then I got introduced to your wonder client and been an addict since then.

Hmm - sounds like it is related to the known bug with timers in plugins, as the database is created by a timer set up by the plugin in its initialisation.

I have made an empty database, and zipped it up. You should be able to find it at:
