My appologies, now that I look at it, you are correct, I was also trying to
connect to a SYBASE db at the same time, that was case sentitive.

For what it is worth the folloing is the environment varaibles and PDL that
we used on Windows to access a Ms sql db.

set VPBASE=DBNAME
set VPUSER=YESIHAVEANAME
set VPPASS=NOCANTREMBERIT

then

database VMONEY type odbc open "$VPBASE" &
                userid "$VPUSER" password "$VPPASS" &
                null values NOT allowed
