When you access data through the ODBC interface, PowerBuilder uses the PBODB120 initialization file (PBODB120.INI) to maintain access to extended functionality in the back-end DBMS for which ODBC does not provide an API call. Examples of extended functionality are SQL syntax or function calls specific to a particular DBMS.
In most cases, you do not need to modify PBODB120.INI. Changes to this file can adversely affect PowerBuilder. Change PBODB120.INI only if you are asked to do so by a Technical Support representative.
However, you can edit PBODB120.INI if you need to add functions for your back-end DBMS.
If you modify PBODB120.INI, first make a copy of the existing file. Then keep a record of all changes you make. If you call Technical Support after modifying PBODB120.INI, tell the representative that you changed the file and describe the changes you made.
