Download ODBC driver

This article discusses the ODBC drivers that connect to SQL Server.

SQL version compatibility

Compatibility indicates that a driver was tested for compatibility against existing releases of SQL at the time of the driver's release. SQL Server releases generally try to maintain backward compatibility with existing client drivers. But new features in SQL Server releases might not be available with older client drivers.

Connection string details

The driver name that you specify in a connection string is one of the following values:

  • ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server
  • ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server (for both 13 and 13.1)
  • ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server
  • ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server

Installing Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server

The driver is installed when you run msodbcsql.msi from one of the Downloads for Windows.

Note

For those who have Driver 17.1.0.1 or below installed, it is recommended that it be uninstalled manually prior to installing the newer version of the Driver.

Side-by-side with Native Client

The driver can be installed side-by-side with SQL Server Native Client. Major versions of the driver (11, 13, 17, 18) can all be installed side-by-side with each other, as well.

When you invoke msodbcsql.msi, only the client components are installed by default. The client components are files that support running an application that was developed using the driver. To install the SDK components, specify ADDLOCAL=ALL on the command line. Here's an example.

msiexec /i msodbcsql.msi ADDLOCAL=ALL

End-user license

Specify IACCEPTMSODBCSQLLICENSETERMS=YES to accept the terms of the end-user license if you use the /passive, /qn, /qb, or /qr option to install. This option must be specified in all uppercase letters. Here's an example.

msiexec /quiet /passive /qn /i msodbcsql.msi IACCEPTMSODBCSQLLICENSETERMS=YES ADDLOCAL=ALL

Silent uninstall

The following example shows how to perform a silent uninstall.

msiexec /quiet /passive /qn /uninstall msodbcsql.msi

Indicate dependency

When an application uses the driver, the application should indicate that it depends on the driver through the install option APPGUID. This indication enables the driver installer to report dependent applications before uninstalling. To specify a dependency on the driver, set the APPGUID command-line parameter to your product code when silently installing the driver. A product code must be created when using Microsoft Installer to bundle your application setup program. Here's an example.

msiexec /i msodbcsql.msi APPGUID={ <Your dependent application's APPGUID> }

Command-line tools: sqlcmd.exe and bcp.exe

The bcp.exe and sqlcmd.exe tools for use with the driver can be downloaded at Microsoft Command Line Utilities 11 for SQL Server, Microsoft Command Line Utilities 13 for SQL Server, or Microsoft Command Line Utilities 13.1 for SQL Server. The driver is a prerequisite to install sqlcmd.exe and bcp.exe.

bcp.exe and sqlcmd.exe are installed in the 110\Tools subfolder of %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\Client SDK\ODBC for version 11, and 130\Tools for 13 and 13.1.

An application that uses BCP functions must specify the driver from the same version, which shipped with the header file and library used to compile the application.

For example, when you compile an ODBC application with msodbcsql11.lib and msodbcsql.h, use DRIVER={ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server} in the connection string.

Components of the Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server on Windows

The ODBC driver on Windows contains the following components:

Component Description
msodbcsql18.dll or
msodbcsql17.dll or
msodbcsql13.dll or
msodbcsql11.dll
The dynamic-link library (DLL) file that contains all of the driver's functionality. This file is installed in %SYSTEMROOT%\System32.
msodbcdiag18.dll or
msodbcdiag17.dll or
msodbcdiag13.dll or
msodbcdiag11.dll
The dynamic-link library (DLL) file that contains the driver's diagnostics (tracing) interface. This file is installed in %SYSTEMROOT%\System32.
msodbcsqlr18.rll or
msodbcsqlr17.rll or
msodbcsqlr13.rll or
msodbcsqlr11.rll
The accompanying resource file for the driver library. This file is installed in %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\1033.
s13ch_msodbcsql.chm or
s11ch_msodbcsql.chm
The Data Source Wizard help file that documents how to create a data source for the driver. This file is installed in %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\1033

NOTE: There's no chm file for ODBC Driver 17 and above.
msodbcsql.h The header file that contains all of the new definitions needed to use the driver.

Note: You can't reference msodbcsql.h and odbcss.h in the same program.
msodbcsql.h for ODBC Driver 18 is installed in %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\Client SDK\ODBC\180\SDK.
msodbcsql.h for ODBC Driver 17 is installed in %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\Client SDK\ODBC\170\SDK.
msodbcsql.h for ODBC Driver 13 is installed in %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\Client SDK\ODBC\130\SDK.

msodbcsql18.lib or
msodbcsql17.lib or
msodbcsql13.lib or
msodbcsql11.lib
The library file needed to call the bcp utility functions that are part of the driver.

Note: If you reference this library file in your program, make sure that it's in your system path and in the system path of users that use the application.
msodbcsql18.lib is installed in %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\Client SDK\ODBC\180\SDK.
msodbcsql17.lib is installed in %PROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft SQL Server\Client SDK\ODBC\170\SDK.
