Troubleshooting - How to use QODBC for development with Visual Studio

Problem Description:

I am trying to use a demo file for development, but QODBC is not allowing me to do this now that the evaluation period on my development machine has expired. Are there specific settings in the QODBC setup that I need to set?

Solutions:

Please keep QuickBooks running. Login as Admin to your Sample company files for working with the sample company file without licensing. You can work with sample files without licenses.

QODBC Read-only edition for QuickBooks Enterprise does not include QRemote License. So after 30 days, you may not be able to use QRemote. Instead of using DSN "QuickBooks Data QRemote," try using "QuickBooks Data" DSN.

If you use visual studio, change the target to x86 instead of Any CPU.

Instead of running the website via IIS, run it from visual studio. When you run via visual studio, the web application is processed by the desktop-based application instead of the service.
