How do i use LabVIEW to communicate to DBF database? Can someone show me an example?

[vianney03]

I read something about setting up a DSN or UDL. How is that done?

I do have the LabVIEW Database Connectivity Toolkit and LabVIEW development 2011.

Also, i copied a DBF file to my desktop for testing. Would that work?

Thank you.

The Database Connectivity Toolkit ships with examples to do exactly that. Have you looked at them?

In terms of setting up a DSN, that is done with the Data Sources applet. This is usually available in the Administrative Tools folder.

I usually use a .UDL. It can be set up via the applet, or simply create an empty file with the .udl extension and double click it to change the parameters.
