I tried what the article was saying but have a little problem,

If i try this code :
lcSettings = "DSN=New"+CHR(0)+;
"Description=New Driver"+CHR(0)+;
"Server=SALSA"+CHR(0)+;
"DefaultDatabase=SALSADB"+CHR(0)+;
"UID=username"+CHR(0)+;
"PWD=password"

DECLARE Integer SQLConfigDataSource IN ODBCCP32 Integer,Integer,String,String
? SQLConfigDataSource(0,4,"SQL Server",lcSettings)

It returns 0 and the SYSYEM DSN is not created

If i try this code :
lcSettings = "DSN=New"+CHR(0)+;
"Description=New Driver"+CHR(0)+;
"Server=SALSA"

DECLARE Integer SQLConfigDataSource IN ODBCCP32 Integer,Integer,String,String
? SQLConfigDataSource(0,4,"SQL Server",lcSettings)

It returns 1 and the SYSYEM DSN is created

I need to specify the Database of SQL.

In the sysem registry if i create it manually it save the Keyword 'Database' with 'SalsaDB'

Any ideas?

Nick,
Thanks
