Connect to Later version of Database server

GideonDalrymple — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 16:35:38 GMT

Hi all!

I have a simple question which I just could find a direct answer searching on the internet. I am currently using ArcGIS Desktop 10.0. I would like to know if its possible to connect to a database server that was created using Catalog 10.4.1.

I have installed SQL 2008 and SQL 2012 is installed on the machine hosting that database.

regards

GIdeon

Did you check these?

Client and geodatabase compatibility

Compatibility between ArcGIS clients and geodatabases in SQL Server

Also Note: The SQL Server Native client installed in the client machine should be of same or higher version to that of SQL Server Database.

Thanks Jayanta,

I don't see 10.0 listed so I guess I won't be able to connect to an enterprise geodatabase created from 10.4.1 right?
