GOAL:

Can a specific version of SQL-92 client connects to a Database with minor version difference ?

GOAL:

What are the SQL-92 client and server compatibility rules?

GOAL:

Can a SQL-92 client connect to SQL-92 server of a different version?

GOAL:

Can an ODBC client with newer driver version connect to older version Database?

GOAL:

Can a JDBC client connect to a SQL-92 server that is of different version?

FACT(s) (Environment):

All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x

FIX:

SQL-92 clients include ODBC, JDBC and ESQL/C, the connectivity rules described here apply to all three types of clients.

Because SQL-92 connections are established as client-server connections, Progress client-server version connectivity rules apply: if both the client and the server are of the same major releases, client can connect. Client can also connect to a Database server with 1 Major release prior

Note :
SQL-92 Client cannot connect to V8 Database because there is no SQL-92 engine in Version 8
