This is new to me, but it sounds to like it has created a generic sql connection. It has the driver but its asking you to make the connection every time you access a table. If you create a new sql connection within ODBCthen you can enter the connection details correctly.
I hope this helps.
(You may already be experienced in ODBC connection and I'm teaching you how to suck eggs! ;-) )

Everything is already connected via a 32bit ODBC System DSN connection that Visual AccountMate sets up. I copied an existing form, changed my remote view and added my new fields. I have no idea why it is asking me to give my SQL login and password.
