Actually I've got a followup to this problem. It isn't the explicit connection. It is actually the connect string. A program compiled for a 7.1.4 database that doesn't use a connect string won't connect to a 7.3.2 database. The same source code compiled for a 7.3.2 database will work fine...with or without a connect string. I need to find a workaround so that we won't have to recompile all of our C modules before we convert the databases.
