Summary: ODBC: interface bug

Initial Comment:
When I tried to modify the data source I had created, there was an interface 
bug.

Detail as follows:

1. To ensure that you have created a data source for MonetDB ODBC Driver.

2. Then, try to modify this data source, press button 'OK' of a dialog about 
MonetDB Data Source Configuration.

3. Unexpectedly, ODBC Data Source Manager, i.e. tab of User DSN, there is 
nothing displayed.

System I used is Windows XP sp2.
The install driver is 'MonetDB-ODBC-Installer-i386-20080214.msi'.

Otherwise, I suggest that we can add test connection function on dialog about 
MonetDB Data Source Configuration, for example, add a button named 'TEST' to 
test ODBC connection with information inputted.

Thanks.

I can reproduce the problem, but I have no idea at all what's wrong. 
Presumably we do things slightly differently than what Microsoft expects,
but they don't tell you what they expect.  We do follow, as far as I can
tell, the documentation, but Microsoft documentation is extremely bad in my
experience.

A work around that I found is to click on Add... as if you want to create
another datasource, and then in the pop-up window click on Cancel.

The Test button is a good idea, but that requires quite some
reorganization of code, so isn't likely to happen in the short term (i.e.
before the next release).  In any case, that should be a Feature Request
and not a Bug.
