Daniel,
If you are accessing an Access 2k database, I would use OLEDB rather than
ODBC. With this you would not require a DSN, and the speed is greater.
ex.
$conn = new COM("ADODB.Connection");
$connString = 'PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;DATA
SOURCE=F:\someMDB.MDB;User Id=Foo;Password=Bar';
$conn->Open($connString);
$rs = $conn->Execute("SomeSQL");
$conn->Close();
