Marc,

If the problem that you are trying to avoid is dealing with the ODBC Control Panel on each workstation the answer is yes. There is a way that you can connect to SQL using ODBC with a DNS-less connection.

Create a database container
Then issue CREATE CONNECTION MyConnection CONNSTRING 'SERVER=(local);DRIVER=sql server;UID=sa;PWD=;DATABASE=northwind'

The above code will create a connection that you can use in your remote views or in SQL pass-through to connect to your SQL Server without dealing with the connection settings on each individual PC.

The above method WILL use ODBC, but it is painless :)
