How to import ODBC data sources?
To import ODBC data sources as main files or rate files go to TABELS|MAIN TABLE|ADD|ODBC or TABELS|RATE TABLE|ADD|ODBC. The ODBC driver manager will appear. Select the data source name. Afterwards the ODBC server starts and a menu with the available datasets appears. Select one and press OK. The dataset will be imported into your PAMCOMP file. Note: Before you can import dataset via ODBC you must have installed the appropriate ODBC driver for the data sources. Please look at the documentation accompanied with your software how to install and enable the ODBC driver.
