Can somebody help this (german-speaking) fellow: http://www.unixboard.de/vb3/showthread.php?t=26943
He says his company's internal application requires you to input a DSN when installing it, and he doesn't know how to come up with a DSN under Wine.
The german speaking part is not a problem, I just don't know my way around that odbc stuff, not even on win32 native.
Presumably he doesn't want to mess with Unixodbc, he just wants to keep using the Microsoft drivers...?
I figure using the appropriate native dlls would work? I vaguely remember Windows had a tool to set up odbc drivers, what was the exe called?
it is located in windows/system32 normally. Something like odbcconf.exe or odbcad32.exe. With one of those you can create a DSN and after that provide it to the app. I post a similiar reply in the unixboard.
