I am not sure if this is a bug but in my MS-SQL server the password for 
my sa account is 'password�'.  To create this password I type in 
p-a-s-s-w-o-r-d-alt142.

I then proceed to create my DSN via MDAC.  I then test it, which is 
successful.  The problem then occurs when I go to CFMX admin and setup 
the DSN using 'sa' for username and  'password�' for the password.  When 
I then submit this configuration I get the nasty and well known error of 
"Connection verification failed for data source: data_source_name 
[]java.sql.SQLException: SQLException occurred in JDBCPool...."

To correct the problem I had to replace my sa's password with something 
more basic such as 'password' and then CFMX  accepted the DSN without a 
problem.

By the way, I am using wacky passwords with �,�,�, etc because this was 
a recommedation in Eweeks OpenHack contest. It appears that Microsoft 
products don't have a problem with this password regime by CFMX 
certainly does.

Give it a try if you don't believe me.
