Tally ERP 9 to Java via ODBC bridge

The following is the working java code to extract consolidated data from Tally Database. 

Note: Type the following code by changing the 'TallyODBC' name to the 'TallyODBC' name in your PC and the compile but before running the code make sure that your 'Tally.exe' is running as an administrator especially if its Windows 7.

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;

              con.close();
          } catch (Exception e) {
          System.out.println(e);
        }
    }
}

Output:

Raw Materials R 1 nos 5000 5000 0 10000
Raw Materials R 2 nos 7000 8000 0 15000
