It probably means that the datasource you want to access needs to be a
system DSN, meaning that the sytem has control over the datasource, as
opposed to file or user DSNs. Is your current datasource a user DSN, file
DSN, or system DSN? Check the ODBC Datasource Administration (under the
control panel). If your datasource is listed under any tab other than
System, then CF won't be able to use it (as CF runs under the system
account).

I was using a new tag(not a tag just a single page) from the <Allaire Dev
Gallery>.
It says that I need to set a system database in my Administrator. I have
never done that. What is a System Database? I tried picking the same
database as my Data source but it FAILED!
Please Help?
