Can I have multiple Sybase (or any other) ODBC Drivers installed?
Is it possible to have two different version of an ODBC driver installed on a single server, specifically Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise 12.5 and Adaptive Server Enterprise 15.5?
Obviously any program would have to use one driver or the other.
