Thanks Todd. Below is the initial output that shows the parameters. I probably overlooked something obvious. Regarding access to SQL, I am running this testing on localhost, and my Windows login context is domain admin. I wasn't sure if the driver might be trying to use 'sa' on the SQL instance, so I temporarily enabled sa with a blank password. The DS3 database is created and populated. I installed a Perl environment per the readme. I recall from David Klee's video that a carriage return character is needed at the end of one of the SQL statements for DS2; however, I didn't do that here for DS3.
