RE: Client Access ODBC

This is a security blanket - I hope there is not a "patch", but I do not
know of one, someone
else on the list may...

Might I ask you this, why ODBC, can you FTP the file; which when done
"properly" can bypass
the the userID and password issue for a "batch" process.

Does anyone know how to eliminate the need to enter the password every time
an ODBC connection is started.  We have a time and attendance job that
uploads punches to our AS/400 (V4R4) four times a day.  We have to enter the
password each time the job runs.  It seems that there should be an option to
enter this once and then let the job run on auto-pilot, but we haven't found
it.  Maybe there's a patch?  Any help is appreciated.
