The ODBCConnectionString structure specifies a set of keys and their associated values that MUST conform to the following ANBF syntax:

 ODBCConnectionString =  *(KeyValuePair SC) KeyValuePair [SC]
 KeyValuePair = (Key EQ Value / SpaceStr)
 Key = SpaceStr KeyName
 KeyName = (nonSP-SC-EQ *nonEQ)
 Value = (SpaceStr ValueFormat1 SpaceStr) / (ValueContent2)
 ValueFormat1 = LCB ValueContent1 RCB
 ValueContent1 = *(nonRCB / ESCAPEDRCB)
 ValueContent2 = SpaceStr / SpaceStr (nonSP-LCB-SC) *nonSC
 nonRCB = %x01-7C / %x7E- FFFF                                 ; not "}"
 nonSP-LCB-SC = %x01-1F / %x21-3A / %x3C-7A / %x7C- FFFF       ; not space, "{" or ";"
 nonSP-SC-EQ = %x01-1F / %x21-3A / %x3C / %x3E- FFFF           ; not space, ";" or "="
 nonEQ = %x01-3C / %x3E- FFFF                                  ; not "="
 nonSC = %x01-003A / %x3C- FFFF                                ; not ";"
