How to connect to OmniVista's sql database

[hamstercnw]

Start Sybase central and open "Adaptive Server" and select Services. Right click "nmc50" and address the "Configuration" tab.

Copy the servername string after "-n" in the "Parameters:" field. It probably ends with "_4760". You need this and also your hosts IP.

Now, Go to File menu and Connect.
Supply user and password in the "Identification" tab.
Supply Server name, [hostname]_4760, Database name and Database file is nmc5 and uncheck both "Start database automatically" and

"Stop database after last disconnect" in the "Database" tab.
Enter these connection parameters in "Advanced" tab. [IP] is your hosts ip address.
"CommLinks=tcpip(HOST=[IP];PORT=30011)"

a better way is to create an ODBC link and connect through that link in Interactive SQL

[luckyme2]

if you start isql from within the server, you only have to enter login and password and you will be connected to the database.

I am looking at connecting to the 4760 database so that I can create my own reports in Qlikview.
I have read the previos posts in this thread. but I think I need a bit more guidance.

Can anyone tell me exaclty how to create an odbc link to my 4760?
