ODBC Linked table

C

cabong

I have a linked table to db2 through ODBC. Everything is working fine,
except, I keep getting prompt for the database password when using the
linked table.

Where and how can I include in my code the database password?

I tried many things including application.SetOption "Password", PW

Any suggestions?

TIA
