    Automatically create ODBC connections


    Hello everybody!

    I'm using the 'Data Sources (ODBC)' program that comes with windows to
    create the odbc connections I need. Although that is quite fast and easy I
    would like to have it more automated, since I'm using the same parameters
    all the time.
    Can anybody tell me (or give pointers to) how that is done?

    regards

    This article (or one of the ones linked from it) might be useful:



    If not, you should probably ask this in an ODBC group, since it's not
    really an MSSQL question.

      Looks like this might solve my problem. Thanks a lot.

      I know, but my newsprovider doesn't have any odbc-groups, so I thought
      this was close enough.....
