Its not a bug Claude, its a feature :-) Figure JDBC has nothing to do with ODBC. So its only natural that a JDBC connection doesn't show in the Windows ODBC applet, and anything in the ODBC applet is not shown in CF's JDBC dsn list.
If you want to make an odbc data source visible to CF, you set up a dsn as type 'ODBC Bridge' ... or something like that. It doesn't happen under CF5 and prior because, back in the day, CF's DSN list was just a different way of looking at the Windows system ODBC DSN list. As a user of mySQL I got used to setting up datasources in Windows to back-door CF support for that unsupported db. No longer necessary. Under CF6+, unless you really need to use the slower, more overhead-laden ODBC connection its not something you want to play with, and you can and should shut off the ColdFusion MX ODBC Agent and ColdFusion MX ODBC Server services as they otherwise do absolutely nothing. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com <http://mysecretbase.com> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:216558 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
