    I use some programs that connect to a database without prompting for a user id and password. The programs use a system dsn. In the system dsn you specify all the ODBC information like user, password, server, database name, etc. How can I do something similar in VB so that my program will connect to the database using the usr and pwd that is stored in the Data Source Name already configured? I do not want to have the usr and pwd hardcoded and I do not want to prompt the user of the application for that either. Please help.... Thanks
