Ooops! Right. Well, lets go at it a different way then. There's really only one reason a dialog would pop up and that's due to an authentication challenge. When you set up your DSN, did you tell it to use SQL Server's authentication instead of NT's?

"It is an important and popular fact that things are not always what they seem. For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much -- the wheel, New York, wars and so on -- whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man -- for precisely the same reasons." - Douglas Adams
