Possible values of the TRANSACTION parameter: ◆SERIALIZABLE ◆READ_UNCOMMITTED ◆READ_COMMITTED ◆REPEATABLE_READ ◆DEFAULT The DEFAULT value means "use default of the SQL server". More information on transactions isolation see in documentation on corresponding DBMS.

The next window will be opened. 5.Specify the necessary DB access settings in this window. Click Client configuration. A window for selecting and setting the network protocol will be opened. 6.In the Network libraries field select a network library for TCP/IP or Named Pipes (recommended).

This window will close and the previous window for setting the driver will be available again. Click Next. The next window will be opened. 7.Check that the Only when you disconnect option, the Use ANSI quoted identifiers and the Use ANSI nulls, paddings and warnings flags are set. Click Next.
