What are ODBCINST.INI Error Messages?


General ODBCINST.INI Runtime Errors

ODBCINST.INI file errors often occur during the startup phase of Tally.ERP, but can also occur while the program is running. These types INI errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Tally.ERP is running. Here are some of the most common ODBCINST.INI runtime errors:
