How do I connect Progress database

[jkacher]

I have a slightly different need - we have Progress 9.1c running (I think via AppServer) within the company. What is the setup to run ASP.Net intranet applications against it? How do I connect to it?

You can not directly. An ODBC connection would be much more useful to you.

Not true. .NET clients can run against AppServer ... but there is a lot to explain about that, so the manuals are the place to start.

Yes, Tamhas is right; you can indeed have .Net clients connect and interact with AppServers. Easiest (I think) is to upgrade to v10, which can create "more native" .Net proxies that you can use in your .Net app to "talk to" an AppServer. Bonus of using the AppServer solution is that you should be able to make use of your existing business logic
