Guys,

I am struggling to create connection to Teradata with VBA.
I have tried these solutions, but nothing works.
VBA Code:
Public TerConnection As New ADODB.Connection
Sub test()

TerConnection.Open "Provider=Teradata;DBCName=server_name;Database=master;Uid=xxxxxx;Pwd=xxxxx;"


MsgBox "Connected"

End Sub

VBA Code:
TerConnection.Open "Driver={Teradata};DBCName=server_name;Database=master;Uid=xxxxxx;Pwd=xxxxxx;"

Also I have tried both options with References in VBA:
1. Microsoft Active X Object 2.8/6.1
2. Microsoft Active X Object Recordset 2.8/6.0 library

I have Office365 64bit and ODBC drivers.

Any idea how to connect to Teradata via VBA.

Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Found a solution:
VBA Code:
conn.Open "Driver={Teradata Database ODBC Driver 16.20};DBCName=server_name;Database=master;CharSet=UTF8;Uid=xxxxxx;Pwd=xxxxxx;"
