Hello...

We are trying to connect to MS SQL Server using ODBC Stage.
The password is "n8aC\Y)D"

We are able to view data but not able to run the job with this Password.
We tried using Double Quotes("), Single Quotes ('), and Escape Characters but not able to run the job.

The user connection works fine when connected using Aqua Data Studio.

Pls advise..

Is the first character a space or some non-printing character? It's possible that, if it's a space, it's been trimmed. I know that's not correct (and would be a bug), but that's my guess.

Finally...it worked

An additional Escape Character for the Escape Character and Double quotes are used.

Actual Password n8aC\Y)D
But is works if passed like this "n8aC\\Y)D"

Thanx
