*Note that SAS does not offer a 64-bit ODBC driver, but a 32-bit ODBC driver for
64-bit machines.

For the latest information about required JREs, please see the
Third Party Software Reference Web site at
http://support.sas.com/resources/thirdpartysupport/index.html.

The SAS ODBC Driver can connect to either a SAS/SHARE Server or a SAS Scalable
Performance Data Server (SPDS).  The driver does not need to have the associated
server on the same box but both should be used in conjunction with the
associated server.

Note: The SAS ODBC Driver can also connect to Base SAS if it's on the same
machine.

Installing SAS Drivers for ODBC 9.23

Before performing the following steps, you should ensure you are logged in as an
administrator.

1. Unpack the download package to a location that is accessible from where you
want to install the software.  Do not put the download package in an existing
SAS Software Depot or in the directory where you want to install.  Doing so will
cause the SAS Software Depot and SAS Deployment Wizard to work incorrectly. You
must put the download package in its own directory/folder.

2. To start the SAS Deployment Wizard, double-click the setup.exe at the
location the files have been unpacked in.

3. The Choose Language page opens. Choose the language in which you want to
perform the installation of your downloaded software. Click OK. Note that users
who have already installed SAS software using the SAS Deployment Wizard will not
see this dialog.

4. The Specify SAS Home page opens. Enter the location you want to install your
software in the text field, or use the Browse button to search for a location.
When the correct location is in the text field, click Next to continue. Note
that users who have already installed SAS software using the SAS Deployment
Wizard will not see this dialog.

5. The Select Products to Install page opens. Ensure the checkbox beside every
product in the list is checked. If you click the Info icon, you will be directed
to documentation about the software you have downloaded. The pertinent parts of
that documentation are repeated in the "Prerequisites" section above.
When each checkbox has been checked, click Next to continue.

6. The Deployment Summary page opens. Click Start to begin the installation.

7. The Deployment in Progress page opens, indicating that the installation is
taking place. When the installation is complete, click Next.

8. The Additional Resources page opens, listing a number of online resources
should you run into difficulty. Use Print to make a copy of this information for
future use. Click Finish to close the SAS Deployment Wizard.
