ODBC Check Driver Utility (Magic xpa 2.x)
MGCHCKDRV.EXE

The ODBC Check Driver utility is included with the ODBC driver. Running this program tests the ODBC data source and prints a list of functions that are produced by the driver. The test will let you know whether the driver can be used with the Database Gateway for ODBC.

If you installed the ODBC gateway when you installed Magic xpa, you will find the mgchkdrv.exe file in the Gateways folder of the Magic xpa directory.

The MGCHKDRV utility was built to check information for any ODBC driver.
