You have acquired the best ODBC in the HP marketplace - now make sure your end-users understand how to put it to use effectively and efficiently. That is the goal of this three-day program.

We will work with your administration team to review your environment and your installation plan to determine if the MBF-UDALink ODBC driver is being deployed in the most effective manner.

We will assist your technical staff in establishing host configurations, data configurations and user configurations. Your users will learn how to access their data in the fastest most efficient way.

In the end, templates will be created for future processes. Both your company and MB Foster will benefit from the knowledge gained. MB Foster will rely on this knowledge to facilitate and future technical support needs.

 
The Administrator Program
 
Host Configuration
The focus will be on establishing connections to your data servers and creating User ID's that are unique to an individual or a group of individuals. Instruction will be given in how User ID's can be further customized to provide or inhibit access to data as required. User Tables that define which areas of the database are available to which users will be covered in this module. You will be educated in setting up environments that grant Read Only Access or Write privileges to database.
 
The End User Program
Your end users will be given an overview of the MBF-UDALink Driver. We will instruct them in Data Source creation, attaching to host tables and accessing the data using third party desktop applications such as MS Access, MS Excel and Impromptu.
