SQLDriverConnect enables you to connect to a driver without creating a data source (DSN).
The following keywords are supported in the connection string for all drivers: DSN, DBQ, and FIL.
The UID and PWD keywords are also supported.
The PWD keyword should not include any of the special characters (see SQL_SPECIAL_CHARACTERS in SQLGetInfo Returned Values).
The following table shows the minimum keywords required to connect to each driver, and provides an example of keyword/value pairs used with SQLDriverConnect. For a full list of DRIVERID values, see SQLConfigDataSource.
