Tim,
I can't help you with the command to open the ODBC Dialog, but if you just want to create a DSN on the fly, try something like this:

LPARAMETER tcJobFile
DECLARE INTEGER SQLConfigDataSource IN odbccp32.DLL INTEGER, ;
INTEGER, STRING, STRING

settings="DSN=Job_Files"+CHR(0)+;
"Description=Paradox ODBC Driver"+CHR(0)+;
"DefaultDir=&tcJobFile"+CHR(0)+;
"FIL=Paradox 3.x"+CHR(0)+;
"CollatingSequence=ASCII"

tcNewDSN = SQLConfigDataSource(0,1,"Microsoft Paradox Driver (*.db )",settings)
CLEAR DLLS
RETURN tcNewDSN

This has been posted on UT in numerous forms over the past couple of years.
