I am not sure if what you are attempting to do is allowed when MSDE is deployed on Win9x. For the name of the server, are you using the name of the Win95 machine? What error are you receiving? I would suggest in your situation, installing MSDE on your WinNT machine.

>I downloaded and installed MSDE on a machine on my network. I would to access it from another machine to start testing how all this works. The MSDE machine is running Windows95 and I have NTWorkstation 4.0 on my development test machine. I cannot get the ODBC connection to the MSDE SQL Server. NEver having done this before, what am I missing? Is there an article somewhere detailing how this works?
