I have been reading the links

http://www.indigorose.com/sf/runtime_module_odbc.php?

After make some tries I have found that my problem is that I don't know how to configure some parameters of the Dbase driver

I need some example

Have you manually created the ODBC setting as that is the best thing to do first and proved it works?

Then go to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI

in the registry and you will see all the relevant settings for the DSN you have just created. You can replicate these in SUF as well as creating the entries in ODBC.INI in your Windows directory by using the registry and INI file actions respectively. Or use the InstallODBC.INI as described in the links you listed.

I had to learn this the hard way as well. We work with a database called FairCom. (www.faircom.com). I have created exe's that do nothing but create the ODBC sources

You also need to make sure you put and entry in

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC Data Sources

besided as mentioned HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI

Also some ODBC drivers also put a file in

C:\Program Files\Common Files\ODBC\Data Sources

Make sure you have these things covered.
