The following instructions assume you already have a SQL Server database running somewhere that your Mac has network access to. Just FYI, Microsoft's instructions for installing the latest drivers are.
ILL, ILM, ILN, ILO, ILP, ILQ, ILR, ILS, ILT, ILU, ILV, ILW, ILX, ILY, ILZ, IMA, IMB. MAA, MAB, MAC, MAD, MAE, MAF, MAG, MAH, MAI, MAJ, MAK, MAL, MAM.
Install FreeTDS and unixODBC The connection to SQL Server will be made using the unixODBC driver manager and the FreeTDS driver. Installing them is most easily done using homebrew, the Mac package manager: brew update brew install unixodbc brew install freetds -with-unixodbc Edit the freetds.conf configuration file The freetds.conf file is usually located in directory /usr/local/etc/. However, Homebrew will create this file as a soft link to the real file located here /usr/local/Cellar/freetds//etc/freetds.conf. Check this location with tsql -C. The default file already contains a bunch of stuff, but all you need to do is add your server information to the end, as follows: MYMSSQL host = mssqlhost.xyz.com port = 1433 tds version = 7.3 There are other key/value pairs that can be added but this shouldn't usually be necessary, see for details. The host parameter should be either the network name (or IP address) of the database server, or 'localhost' if SQL Server is running directly on your Mac (e.g.
A TDS version of 7.3 should be OK for SQL Server 2008 and newer, but bear in mind you might need a different value for older versions of SQL Server. For more information on TDS protocol versions see. Do not use TDS versions 8.0 or 9.0 though.
Oddly, they are not newer than version 7.4. They are actually obsolete aliases for older TDS versions and their use is discouraged. Test the connection using the tsql utility, e.g. Tsql -S MYMSSQL -U myuser -P mypassword. If this works, you should see the following: locale is 'enUS.UTF-8' locale charset is 'UTF-8' using default charset 'UTF-8' 1 At this point you can run SQL queries, e.g. 'SELECT @@VERSION' but you'll need to enter 'GO' on a separate line to actually execute the query. Type exit to get out of the interactive session.
Edit the odbcinst.ini and odbc.ini configuration files Run odbcinst -j to get the location of the odbcinst.ini and odbc.ini files (probably in directory /usr/local/Cellar/unixodbc//etc/). Edit odbcinst.ini to include the following: FreeTDS Description=FreeTDS Driver for Linux & MSSQL Driver=/usr/local/lib/libtdsodbc.so Setup=/usr/local/lib/libtdsodbc.so UsageCount=1 Edit odbc.ini to include the following: MYMSSQL Description = Test to SQLServer Driver = FreeTDS Servername = MYMSSQL Note, the 'Driver' is the name of the entry in odbcinst.ini, and the 'Servername' is the name of the entry in freetds.conf (not a network name). There are other key/value pairs that can be included, see for details. Check that all is OK by running isql MYMSSQL myuser mypassword. You should see the following: +-+ Connected! sql-statement help tablename quit +-+ You can enter SQL queries at this point if you like.
Type quit to exit the interactive session. Connect with pyodbc It should now be possible to connect to your SQL Server database using pyodbc, for example: import pyodbc # the DSN value should be the name of the entry in odbc.ini, not freetds.conf conn = pyodbc.connect('DSN=MYMSSQL;UID=myuser;PWD=mypassword') crsr = conn.cursor rows = crsr.execute('select @@VERSION').fetchall print(rows) crsr.close conn.close.

Today, we are announcing the general availability of Office 2019 for Windows and Mac. Is the next on-premises version of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Project, Visio, Access, and Publisher.
Office 365 ProPlus, the cloud-connected version of Office, delivers the most productive and most secure —with the lowest total cost of ownership for deployment and management. However, for customers who aren’t ready for the cloud, Office 2019 provides new features and updates to the on-premises apps for both users and IT professionals. Like Windows Long Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) releases, Office 2019 provides a set of valuable enhancements for customers who can’t be cloud-connected or receive regular updates. The new enhancements in Office 2019 are a subset of a long list of features that have been added to Office 365 ProPlus over the last three years. Office 2019 is a one-time release and won’t receive future feature updates. However, we’ll continue to add new features to Office 365 ProPlus monthly, including innovations in collaboration, artificial intelligence (AI), security, and more. Office 2019 delivers features across apps to help users create amazing content in less time.
In PowerPoint 2019, you can create cinematic presentations with new features like Morph and Zoom. And improved inking features across the apps in Windows—like the roaming pencil case, pressure sensitivity, and tilt effects—allow you to naturally create documents. Excel 2019 adds powerful new data analysis features, including new formulas and charts and enhancements to PowerPivot.
Word 2019 and Outlook 2019 help you focus on what matters most. Learning Tools, like Read Aloud and Text Spacing, make it easier to engage with your content.

For a longer list of the new features in Office 2019, see our. Office 2019 also includes new IT value for enhanced security and streamlined administration. We introduced Click-to-Run (C2R), a modern deployment technology, in Office 2013, and it’s now used to deploy and update Office across hundreds of millions of devices worldwide. With Office 2019, we’re moving the on-premises versions of Office to C2R to reduce costs and improve security.
The advantages of C2R include predictable monthly security updates, up-to-date apps on installation, reduced network consumption through Windows 10 download optimization technology, and an easy upgrade path to Office 365 ProPlus. C2R offers the same enterprise-focused management capabilities as Microsoft Installer (MSI) based products and will also support an in-place upgrade when you move to Office 2019 from older MSI-based products. To learn more, refer to the. The 2019 release of Office products also includes updates to our servers, and in the coming weeks, we will release Exchange Server 2019, Skype for Business Server 2019, SharePoint Server 2019, and Project Server 2019. Office 2019 is a valuable update for customers who aren’t yet ready for the cloud. And each time we release a new on-premises version of Office, customers ask us if this will be our last. We’re pleased to confirm that we’re committed to another on-premises release in the future.
While the cloud offers real benefits in productivity, security, and total cost of ownership, we recognize that each customer is at a different point in their adoption of cloud services. We see the on-premises version of Office as an important part of our commitment to give customers the flexibility they need to move to the cloud at their own pace. Availability.
