What version are you using? 1.04 I suspect. I think it's the latest
and I think it's a new test that I put in to test DSN= or DRIVER=
opening of the database explicitly, however, it's not smart enough (yet)
to handle a DSN that's already setup that way. If so, and if it's the
only problem, then I believe you are OK. I'll have to fix the test, but
it should only be that.
