Hi,
User = a User data source is only visible to you, and can only be used on
the current machine
System = a System data source is visible to all users of this machine,
including NT services
Fine = File DSNs can be shared by users who have the same drivers installed.
Sharable
The default tab is User
if you setup the dsn logged into the system and then try to use it not
logged in as that same user then the application wont be able to see it.
so, you either setup a dsn under each user or setup a system dsn
Is this what you were asking?
