I am tring to write series of waveforms to a database. The DB tools doesn't work with Microsoft SQL, but when i replace the SQL with Access, it works fine. I have to use SQL in the application.

I don't use it myself, but what I can tell you is that on the installation CD are a number of readme's and a special folder about SQL compatibility. There is even some fix executable on it. I suggest you check that out.

Right off hand I would say the problem is that you are connecting through ODBC. Try the native SQL Server driver, your connect string should define the provider as "SQLOLEDB.1".
